Pahadiya girl defies odds, cracks JPSC exam through self study
Dumka: In a story of hope, strength and perseverance, Babita Singh, a girl from Pahadiya community, cracked the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) 2023 examination, whose results were announced on Friday. Babita, who hails from a particularly vulnerable tribal group (PVTG), is among the 342 candidates from across the state to have made the cut. What makes her stand out from the rest is her unwavering resolve to become a govt officer by overcoming the odds and resisting pressure from her family members and the community to get married. Babita, a resident of Asansol village under Dumka sadar block completed her graduation with mathematics from Sido-Kanhu Murmu University in Dumka in 2018. Her family members insisted her to get married after she failed to crack several competitive examinations. "We insisted her to get married as her attempts to crack competitive examinations for banking, railway and other services continued to turn futile but she remained adamant" said Babita's father Bindulal Singh, who works as a helper in a local private school. "Eventually, I relented," he added. "This was my second attempt to the JPSC examination in which I opted for Khorta language in the optional paper with the other compulsory papers," Babita told the TOI. Babita did not take tuitions and cracked the exam through self-study as she could not afford coaching fee. "I purchased books online and took help of YouTube and other digital platforms," she said.
