And she almost gave up studies last year, as the head of
the government school decided to bar married girls from continuing
their studies, as they may set a wrong example to other students. She
got back her place in school after The Hindu reported it and higher authorities intervened.
Her mother S. Vimala rues the decision to marry her off to her brother, as
per a prevailing community practice. “I thought she would take care of
my aged parents if I give her in marriage to my only brother. But I
didn’t expect him to be a drunkard. I curse myself now.”
Dumb decisions. Both were taken by women living in the 21st century. The women are the worst oppressors of women.

“Belonging to a Backward Class, I don’t know whether
she will get a free medical seat in a government college. Her father
runs a shop that tends to cycle punctures and doesn’t earn much,” says
the girl’s relative S. Pandiselvi.
“My maternal
grandparents want me to live with their son and are refusing to part
with my jewels and other articles given during the wedding. But I am
determined not to go to him because now I know that child marriage is
not valid in law and I need not apply for formal divorce. My search now
is for a benefactor who will help me realise my dream of becoming a
doctor,” she said.
If a Backward caste kid has difficulty getting into a government medical college, imagine the plight of the forward caste kids.

You dont even know that? Can't even get such a simple answer from your Tamil friends in the occupied Tamil Nadu ?
And, you CLAIM to know what the Tamilians think about their freedom and their hatred of Hindia.
