Hyderabad: A 17-year-old girl, worried over how other girls like her would cope with the demands during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, not only managed to help 100 other girls continue with their studies but also generated online content that others want to use, in the state as well as in in the rest of the country.
According to Smriti Marar, the strong urge to do something for other students was a result of the time she spent at the Naandi Foundation two years ago where she learnt about various resources and progammes available for students in class ten. “I wanted to do something so girls in class 10 can go on and complete their 12th grade,” she said.
