Is a promising student

Dr Choubey adds, Kanhaiya’s handwriting is good. Along with good writing, he is also good at studies. He gets good marks like other students. Kanhaiya speaks very little in addition to being simple. He doesn’t even ask many questions, Dr Choubey said.

His family members say that they have given up as he is firm on his decision of not wearing clothes. Due to his interest in studies, they keep motivating him for continuous studies.
