Sabrina Khaliq, who left her studies after Class 9 following her marriage, made up her mind last year to study and appear in the examination as a private candidate.
In an inspiring feat, a mother of three from Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir has topped the Class 10 bi-annual board examination by securing 93 per cent marks.
Sabrina Khaliq, who left her studies after Class 9 following her marriage, made up her mind last year to study and appear in the examination as a private candidate.
"I had to look after my family. I devoted myself to the family, my kids. However, after 10 years, last year I decided to study and take the exams," Ms Khaliq, a resident of Awoora village of the remote district, said.
She said her family supported her move but juggling between household chores, looking after children and studies was difficult. However, the mother of three -- two daughters and a son -- was determined.
