Menaka Kaipeng
In the year 2006-07, during Vidyalaya Chalo Abhiyan Programme, some teachers identified Menaka Kaipeng as a never enrolled child from a remote village and got her admitted in the Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) attached to Haripur High School under Ampinagar R. D Block.
Her father is a daily labourer and due to severe poverty it was very difficult for him to admit Menaka in a school and to continue her study. As a result, she was out of schooling system till her age of 13.
After admission in KGBV, it was spotted that she was unfamiliar with alphabets and numbers. With the help of Warden and other teachers she learnt alphabets, numbers etc. and gradually she improved.
In the year 2012 and 2014, Menaka successfully passed Madhyamik and H.S (+2) Stage Examination respectively. Her excellence and devotion towards studies is highly appreciable and also can be put forward as an inspiration for the other girls of KGBV in Tripura. Now, this year she is preparing for her final University Exam of 3 years degree course in Bachelor of Arts from Women’s College, Agartala.
