| Students these days take various forms of public and personal transport to reach their examination centre. But an ambulance?
A 15-year-old girl, who survived a nasty accident a couple of days ago, has been taking an ambulance to a school in East Tambaram the last two days to appear for the ongoing X standard public examinations. M. Suryakala of Misrimal Pukhraj Bhora Government Girls High School writes the examination confined to a stretcher.
The girl while riding a bicycle was knocked down at Rajakilpakkam by a bus on Saturday. She was dragged for about 20 feet. Ms. Suryakala sustained serious injuries in the abdomen and legs.
Undeterred by the trauma, the girl who has an external metal fixator implanted on her left leg, has shown steely resolve not to miss her examinations. Her parents, Murugan, a private leather company employee and Manjula, said at first they had little hope of their daughter getting back in shape in time to take the remaining examinations, considering the grievous injuries.
Maruthi Rao, an orthopaedician at the speciality hospital, said the injuries were serious and the student demonstrated exemplary courage during treatment.
