This talks was delivered at event organized by IISER BHOPAL, a wonderful lecture series for School students. Prof HC Verma talked about JEE, Pressure, Coaching etc.
He also developed over 300 physics experiments and 45 video lectures in Hindi.
He also explores physics and science in ancient Indian literature available on his website.
You can read more about him at https://hcverma.in/. As I always say true curiosity is in “hyper-linked learning”. That is a truly curious learner will thoroughly explore his website to see “deeper” things.
