An avid reader, Bindu would encourage her son Vivek, who was in Class 10 then, to read books. Nine years later, they are all set to join the government service together.
In a truly inspiring story from Kerala, a 42-year-old woman and her 24-year-old cleared Kerala Public Service Commission together.
Bindu, an anganwadi (rural child care centre) teacher for the last 10 years, wanted a job in the government service. An avid reader, she would encourage her son Vivek, who was in Class 10 then, to read books. Nine years later, they are all set to join the government service together.
They went to classes together and it was Vivek's father who stood by them throughout their journey. However, Bindu couldn't keep up with her busy angawadi schedule.
"I am the best example of what a PSC aspirant should be and should not be. By that, I mean I did not study continuously. I started preparing for the exam six months before the test date. Then I took a break till the next round of exams are announced three years later" said Bindu.
