A third-year B.Sc. student, Shraddha was inspired and supported by her parents and faculty members in achieving this rare feat. Recognising her accomplishment, Dr. Heggade praised her effort, calling it a testament to her hard work and commitment.
Shraddha’s inclusion in the India Book of Records not only brings honour to her and her family but also adds to the growing list of achievements by students of SDM institutions.
