Rickshaw driver’s daughter tops CA exam

Mumbai : Mumbai has witnessed an inspiring story of a poor family braving all odds to make its children achieve the very pinnacle of academic achievement.

Prema Jayakumar, daughter of an auto-rickshaw driver, has been declared as the topper of the CA exam, sparking off celebrations and a flurry of presents from relatives, friends and well-wishers.

Prema’s brother Dhanraj also cleared the CA exam, the culmination of years of hard work and study in the family’s cramped one-room tenement in the city’s Malad suburb.

Prema’s father, Jayakumar Perumal, said that he had resolved never to let financial difficulties to stand in the way of his children’s education.
