Daughter of an auto-rickshaw driver, she has secured second rank in the Immaculate Heart of Mary Girls’ Higher Secondary School. She scored 100 per cent in two subjects- Commerce and Accounts (200 marks), 199 marks in Business Mathematics, 192 in Economics and 186 marks in both English and Tamil. “I will support her in pursuing higher education,” says her father Kaleel, who struggles to earn enough to meet the family expenses.
