92 year old grandmother goes to school for first time to fulfill her dream of being able to read and write
Salima Khan from Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahr has fulfilled her dream of being able to read and write. 92-year-old Sameeran walked into the Chawli Primary School with Firdaus with her great-granddaughter-in-law (35) about six months ago and can now read, write, and count.
Born in around 1931 and who was married at the age of 14 -- two years before the end of British colonial rule in India -- had a lifelong dream of being able to read and write. The school's principal, Dr Pratibha Sharma, encouraged Sameeran and Firdaus to enroll in the village council school under the Centre's Nav Bharat Literacy Mission.
Six months ago, she began studying alongside pupils eight decades younger than her, and she was accompanied on her way to class by her grandson's wife. Volunteers from a government education initiative had identified Khan as a potential student and encouraged her to go to school. Since she went to school, many women from her village have also started literacy classes. India's literacy rate is around 73 percent, according to the 2011 census.
