Kerala is a State where one can live in peace and study and grow, Minister for General Education V. Sivankutty has said.
He was talking to mediapersons after visiting Hoineijem Vaiphei, fondly known as Jejem, a girl from Nakhujang in Manipur who is a Class III student at Government Lower Primary School, Thycaud, here on Thursday.
Jejem reached the State from a riot-hit area of Manipur with the help of relatives. Though she did not have any official documents, including transfer certificate (TC), she was, nevertheless, given admission to the government school by the General Education department. She has been provided with various facilities, including uniform.
