When the Common University Entrance Test (CUET-UG) results were declared on June 23, 2026, lakhs of students were glued to their screens, anxiously refreshing their scores. Amid them, one name stood out at the very top of the national merit list. Devina Gahlot, the younger daughter of BJP leader and former Delhi minister Kailash Gahlot, secured All India Rank 1, achieving the highest aggregate National Testing Agency (NTA) score in the country.
When the result was announced, her initial reaction was one of disbelief. Speaking to ANI, Devina said, "The exam went very well, but I never thought that I would secure AIR 1... God has been very kind."
