Patna: Bihar Education Minister Mithilesh Tiwari on Tuesday congratulated the parents of JEE Advanced 2026 All India Rank-1 holder Shubham Kumar through a video call, describing the student’s achievement as a matter of pride for the entire state.

During the conversation, the minister conveyed his best wishes on behalf of Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary and the state government. He said Shubham’s success reflected both his hard work and the support provided by his family.

Shubham, a resident of Brahmani Ghat in Gaya, secured the top rank in the country in JEE Advanced 2026 by scoring 330 marks out of 360.

Minister Plans to Meet Family

According to the Education Department, Tiwari told Shubham’s parents that their son’s accomplishment had brought recognition to Bihar at the national level.

He attributed the success to the values and guidance provided by the family along with Shubham’s dedication towards his studies. The minister also said he intended to meet Shubham and his family personally in the near future.

Since the announcement of the results, congratulatory messages have poured in from political leaders and public figures across the country. Among those who have praised the achievement are Nitin Nabin, Jitan Ram Manjhi and Tejashwi Yadav.

Top Rank With 330 Marks

JEE Advanced is regarded as one of India’s most competitive entrance examinations for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

By scoring 330 out of 360 marks, Shubham secured the highest rank nationwide. He said he had prepared for the examination with discipline over the past two years, following a structured study schedule and regularly assessing his progress.

According to Shubham, consistent practice and focused improvement in weaker subjects played a crucial role in his preparation.

Family Support and Scholarship

Shubham’s father, Shiv Kumar, runs a hardware business in Gaya, while his mother, Kanchan Devi, is a homemaker. The family supported his academic aspirations throughout his preparation.

Recognising his potential, a coaching institute awarded him a full scholarship, enabling him to continue his JEE preparation in Kota, Rajasthan.

Academic Excellence Runs in the Family

Academic achievement is not new to the family. Shubham’s elder sister, Shreya Kumari, topped Gaya district last year and is currently pursuing Computer Science at Indian Institute of Technology Patna.

His grandfather, Ramchandra Das, said both Shubham and Shreya had shown a strong commitment to studies from an early age. He credited the family’s supportive environment for helping them pursue their educational goals.

  • 🚗 Bihar is set to strengthen road safety standards with a major change in the driving licence process. Soon, applicants seeking a Light Motor Vehicle (LMV) licence will be required to complete certified training from a recognised driving institute before obtaining their licence.

The decision, approved by the Bihar Road Safety Council, aims to ensure that new drivers receive proper training in traffic rules, road safety practices, and responsible driving behaviour. With 41 operational driving training schools already functioning across the state and more institutes under development, the initiative is expected to improve driving standards and contribute to reducing road accidents.

Officials say the reform will help create a culture of safer and more disciplined driving across Bihar, placing greater emphasis on skill-based training before drivers take to the roads.
