Saraswoti is from Ramauli village. Her family lives in squatter settlements and works as sand Sievers and fish throughout the day for a living. Although they worked hard, they hardly made any savings and could not afford school fees for her. Saraswoti left her studies and got engaged in her family work at the riverside.
When she was assessed, her passion for studies was found to be high; so was her risk of being trafficked and abused at the riverbank. She was enrolled back to school under the Captivating Village Project’s scholarship program.
She is talented and secured second position in the recent interschool quiz competition and expressed her joyfulness and was thankful for the support.
