Mysore, May 24

Profound hearing loss did not deter this girl who secured 82 % in the II PU exam.

Kautilya Vidyalaya’s Sushma is the daughter of Minor Irrigation Assistant Executive Engineer H.F. Rayanagoudar and Uma, Headmistress of Rotary School for the Hearing Impaired.

She joined tuitions during the initial classes but when she found difficulty in understanding the concepts in class, she preferred to study on her own.

In class, Sushma would try to to understand lessons by lip reading what the teachers said which had to be in a slow manner for her to grasp.

Says her brother Praveen, their mother played a major role in her achievement and adds that Sushma was planning to pursue computer science engineering. Sushma had secured 91% in SSLC exam.
