He bagged another internship with IISER Pune, where he was shortlisted to be mentored under Science Nurture Porgramme run by IISER students under DISHA programme.

It was during his interactions and lessons with the DISHA volunteers, who also mentor students of Classes XI and XII, where Tawale sharpened his concepts and skills that helped him clear the IISER entrance and join the institution.

“There is nothing impossible if you can think and dream big and have faith in yourself. I am excited to be beginning a career in doing research,” said Tawale, who was from the first group of students to be part of Prerna programme, run for students of Classes XI and XII.
