The people of Indirapuram came together to help Kajal pursue her dreams. Kajal is now preparing for the entracnce exam of country’s most respectable technical institution, IIT. The residents of Indirapuram collected Rs 20,000 by chipping in and got Kajal enrolled in a coaching centre, so, that she could get proper guidance on how to prepare for the exams, Navbharat Times reports. Not just this, the Indirapuram residents are bearing the cost of her studies too. The story doesn’t end here. The generous people of Indirapuram have also managed to get a job for her father, who now works as a supervisor to supplement the family’s income.
Kajal passed class 12th in science stream scoring 95 percent marks but witnessing her family’s financial condition, she had to discontinue her studies. As per the Navbharat Times report, at one point of time, the family members got so depressed and helpless that they were planning to commit suicide.
