Ankit Soni, a specially abled boy, has answered the company secretary examination papers with his foot.

Ankit said that he had started writing with his foot as advised by his doctor and family members " They kept on encouraging me and I kept on writing like this", he said. Aniket had joined drawing classes to improve his writings.

Ankit also added that he never feelt awkward or asked for more time as he could easily match the speed of other students.

"Whenever I am writing, I feel no difference and think that it's with my hand only that I am writing. I don't need any extra time. The way other students feel while writing I also feel the same," said Ankit.

Ankit had lost both his hands fourten years ago. Ever since then he has been answering his examination papers with his foot.

An electric shock had burnt both the hands of Ankit. They needed amputation and since childhood he has been using his foot to write.
