  10. I am Sandhya, 11 years old. I am from Koramu. Srikakulam District from Andhrapradesh. I have completed three years in Tamil Nadu along with my family members. We are living in a rented house in Tamil Nadu. Now I am studying class V in Egattur School. My parents are going for construction works in Hiranandani. I was studying in a matriculation School in Andhra before coming to Tamil Nadu. My sister is in class VI in the same school. This special school provides all the education materials at free of cost. My father advises me to attend the school regularly. I informed my father of the computer course which was offered by RDT in the month of December 2012. He did not make any comments at that time. I too wonder why he did not say anything. After some days I told him that I type English alphabets on the laptop. He was astonished to know that i opearte computer. He has promised that he would give education even after SSLC. My father told that he would admit me in a hostel in Andhra Pradesh to pursue my higher study. I have acepted it. He also proudly told that I should not suffer like them under the scorching heat for the low wages. Mrs.Sumathy, the Head of nearby government school told that I draw picture very well. Her appreciation makes me get more interesting in my study. I am very grateful to RDT for providing education to us. Case Study
