A remarkable tale of perseverance and determination has seen G Nirmala, a student from Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV), Kurnool, a residential girls’ school run by the Ministry of Education for the underprivileged sections, emerge victorious in the state’s First Year Intermediate exam. Nirmala was once saved from forced child marriage.

“Despite overcoming challenges like being rescued from child marriage, she scored an impressive 421 out of 440. Her aspiration to become an IPS officer showcases her dedication to social justice. Let’s celebrate her courage and wish her the best for her future pursuits!” the post added.
YSRCP legislator Y Saiprasad Reddy claims that last year during the latter’s “Gadapa Gadapaku Mana Prabhutvam” programme, G Nirmala, who was determined to pursue her educational goals in life, approached him and begged for assistance.
Touched by the girl’s plight, the Adoni MLA told district collector G Srujana about it. G Srujana then took action and saved G Nirmala from an impending child marriage.
Subsequently, the district administration managed to secure her admission to Kasturba Gandhi Balikala Vidyalaya in Aspari. After that, G Nirmala defied all odds to secure a spot on the toppers list for the intermediate examinations this year.
