The award carries a certificate of merit, a sliver medal, and a

Ministry of Human Resource Development earlier this month, it was informed that
the award would be presented to her by the President at a function to be held in

Some of her initiatives at the school included conducting free
extra classes for students weak in studies, special thrust for extra curricular
activities, provision of uniform and books to 50 students coming from
economically weak families every year, and conducting free spoken English
