Gerupura, 7/4: Enduring the pain of her father’s demise, Arshiya Maniyar, a class 10 student of Indira Gandhi Residential School at Gerupura in Hosanagar taluk appeared for her English examination on Thursday after travelling to Koppal from Hosanagar–covering a distance of over 300 km — to see her father’s mortal remains.
Though she was allowed to attend the funeral of her father held on April 6, she chose to write the examination saying that passing the examinations with flying colours would be the right tribute to him.
