KBC16: In the latest season of 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' hosted by Amitabh Bachchan, Ujjwal Prajapati, a contestant from Bihar, managed to secure a prize of 50 lakhs but fell short of answering the one crore question. Following his exit, Chandra Prakash, hailing from Kashmir, has emerged as the next contestant. 

Media reports are abuzz with the possibility of Chandra Prakash becoming the first crorepati of KBC season 16. The promotional material for the show hints at Chandra Prakash making it to the 7 crore question, indicating his successful navigation of the one crore question. His exceptional knowledge and skills have left many astonished, given that very few contestants have managed to reach this point in the game. The curiosity surrounding Chandra Prakash's journey has piqued my interest, prompting a desire to learn more about his background and profession.

Chandra Prakash is preparing for UPSC

Chandra Prakash, the future contestant on KBC 16, revealed to Amitabh Bachchan that he is currently preparing for the UPSC exam. When asked about his occupation, Chandra Prakash mentioned that he is pursuing a master's degree in Economics and is also actively preparing for the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exams. He is obtaining his education from the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) and spends the rest of his time preparing for the UPSC at home. His goal is to enter administrative services by becoming an IAS or IPS officer after successfully passing the UPSC exam.

Undergo an operation immediately after birth

Chandra Prakash recounted the numerous challenges he encountered right from the time of his birth. He narrated to Amitabh that upon his birth, it was discovered that he had a blockage in his intestine, necessitating immediate surgery. Although the initial procedure seemed to have been successful, the medications administered subsequently hurt his kidneys, rendering him unable to even rise from his bed. Compounding the situation, insurance companies declined coverage. Despite this setback, his parents tirelessly sought treatment for him, making countless visits to the hospital in their quest for a solution.
