Bala said, "I studied till Class 10 here following which I went to Jammu for my higher secondary education. Then I completed my graduation from Gandhinagar. I was in my last semester when I started preparing for this exam and cleared it, by god's grace in the first attempt." She said my support came from her parents, teachers, and many other people. Her preparation for this exam was aided by her diligence, tenacity, and consistency. Speaking about her exceptional accomplishment, she stated that this test is at the national level for India. She thanked the era of the internet as it doesn't matter if you are from a border region or a large city—you will be able to pass the exam.
She is been an imspiration for others and had gave a message to the aspirants that "If you have got it in you, you will be able to crack it. You need hard work, an honest approach and good health."
