Labourer's daughter shines in Andhra Pradesh SSC exams, gets land as reward

VIJAYAWADA: P Amulya, a bright student from a poor agricultural family in Tubadu village, Nadendla mandal, Palnadu district, has achieved a remarkable feat.
Despite facing financial challenges, Amulya cleared the secondary school certificate (SSC) examination with flying colours, securing 593 marks out of 600.
What makes her achievement even more inspiring is that she comes from a family of daily wage earners, and her parents, Anil and Ruthamma, have been working hard to make ends meet. Amulya too worked in farms to support her parents financially and fund her education.
Noble gesture
Moved by Amulya's success, Palnadu district collector Arun Babu announced a grant of one acre of agriculture land to the family under the landless agriculture poor scheme. The collector's gesture aims to empower the family and enable them to support Amulya's further education and that of her siblings.
Amulya, the eldest of four girl children, never let her family's financial struggles deter her from pursuing her education. She would often help her parents with their daily wage work on weekends and festival holidays, but her focus on studies remained unwavering. Her hard work and dedication paid off when she emerged as a topper in the SSC examination in her school, Chirumamilla Zilla Parishad high school.
Amulya expressed her gratitude and joy over the collector's decision, saying that she will continue to study with the same vigor and become a govt official. "I aspire to assist the poor, just like the district collector has done for my family," she further said.
