L.Kamatchi
I am Kamatchi, belonging to ST community and hailed from a very poor family. Due to my family condition, I discontinued my studies at 4th standard and was pushed to grazing goats. BRTEs and KGBV teachers identified me during their survey and I joined the KGBV School in 2005 at Sankarapuram. Many facilities are being provided in KGBV Schools like Uniforms, Text Books, Cosmetics, Stationary and free Hostel. I was very pleased to continue my studies in KGBV school. Teachers encouraged me to go for further studies. I scored 425 marks out of 500 (i.e. 85%) in 10th Std and 1008/1200(i.e. 84%) in 12th Std. Then I joined Civil Engineering in Anna University Engineering College at Thindivanam.
Today I have achieved my dream to become an Engineer. After completing my course, I underwent placement training at Polytechnic College in Sankarapuram. After that, I am working in a Private company at Chennai and also preparing for the Tamilnadu Public Service Commission Group Exams. I hope to pass the Group I Examination.
