Hyderabad: 20-year-old Simran Fatima never complained living under thatched roof, with mounting financial struggle. She proved to be a successful mixed martial arts champion nevertheless, and now, is all set to become the first doctor in her family.
After receiving coaching for National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for the two consecutive years she attained 104,506 rank, Fatima secured a free medical seat under the National Cadet Corps (NCC) quota.
Daughter of a cycle mechanic Syed Jafar and Sameena Begum, Fatima believed in dreaming and working hard. “Our daughter has always made us proud; right from her childhood, she studied on scholarships, worked hard and won championships and today all her hard work paid off as she got what we all prayed for,” the parents said, with pride in their teary eyes.
