Unaffected by odds Kunjatta sings for a bright academic year

Kozhikode | Tuesday | 1st June, 2021

Summary:

The prayer she has been rehearsing opened the statewide 'Praveshanolsavam' the celebration marking the beginning of the new school year online on Tuesday. As the Class 5 student of BEM UP School practised the prayer her equally excited mother captured every moment on a phone the woman had borrowed from her brother Rahul. On school records she is K Ananya Ranjith daughter of tile-worker Ranjith. Her family does not own the land and they were among the 19 families shifted here 29 years ago. The concerns apparently have not affected Kunjatta as she practised “engumengum nirayum velichame…” roughly the Malayalam version of “Lead kindly light… .”.
