Story of an SDM ----


Today the LADY SDM of the city was going to come to school. All the girls of the class were very happy. Everyone was talking about only one thing - SDM. And why not, after all she was also a girl. But on one hand when all the girls were busy discussing SDM, a girl was sitting on the last bench of the seat and playing with a pen and its cap. It did not matter to her who was coming and why. She was lost in her own world. That girl was Aarushi.


Aarushi was the only daughter of a farmer in a nearby village....the distance between her school and her house was about 10 kms which she covered by bicycle.


...her other friends in school did not connect with her much because she was not rich like them but what was her fault in this...?


...... Well her life was set, after intermediate she could not study further....because her father could invest money only in one place, either in marriage or in further studies....no one in her family had studied more than matriculation....


Only this road map kept revolving in front of her eyes that this class is her last class and after this she will be married off....


That is why she did not dream of the future and that is why the arrival of SDM that day did not affect her....exactly at 12 o'clock SDM came to their school....a girl of about 24-25 years...an Ambassador car with blue light and 4 policemen with her...after the 2 hour program SDM left...but she left a big hope in Aarushi's heart...


She was now falling in love with her life...as if her dreams wanted to be free now...!!

Aarushi could not sleep that night... she remained in the same confusion even in school... what should I do? .... Now she wanted to fly, then suddenly her father's poverty came and stood in between her dreams and destinations....


She went back home and told everything to her mother and father at dinner.... Papa hugged her.... They had a small piece of land... It would be worth around 50000 rupees... He had kept it for Aarushi's marriage... Papa said that I can fulfill only one thing... ..


Be it for your marriage or your dreams... Aarushi got ready to gamble on her dreams... After intermediate, she took admission in BA...


Because its fees were the cheapest in graduation... Papa arranged the money by asking someone... But this was not her destination, her destination was somewhere else...


She started preparing... The biggest problem was of books... So for that she took help of an old shop on the corner... Where old books were sold or bought... These old She used to get books at half the price... She would buy a book and after reading it, sell it and buy another book..."" It is said that when the courage of birds is strong, even the sky begins to bow its height""

...Seeing Aarushi's dedication, the uncle at the shop started giving her books for free and would buy some new books himself and give them to her saying that when you become a student, return them with interest "" Whatever happens, Aarushi did not want to break this belief..... 2 years of graduation were completed.....and her preparation continued.....


Everything was going well when suddenly her mother fell ill.... money was needed for treatment but the house was already in debt.....finally, father mortgaged the land....and in the meantime she took admission in the third year of graduation....


Problems were not leaving her side....how long did Aarushi try to strengthen her spirits, finally one day she hugged her mother and cried a lot...and asked only one thing """Maa, will our good days never come?"""


. ....His mother gave him courage..and he tried again..!! ..It is said that warriors are never defeated...either they are victorious or they attain martyrdom.....


..23rd June, yes, this was the same day when Aarushi had cleared the preliminary exam..now it was the turn of the main exam. And Aarushi's spirits were now touching the seventh sky.....


The result of three years of continuous hard work was that Aarushi cleared the main exam as well......now she was standing just one step away from her dream.....when she looked back, she could see only three people..mother, father and the shop owner uncle......finally the interview took place.....and in the final result Aarushi achieved success......and finally she became SDM.


Aarushi could not believe that yes, this is the same Aarushi.....mother and father were not able to stop the flood of their tears......


Aarushi left her house quickly...after all she had to thank someone else too with those same tears. ....She went straight and stopped near the uncle who owned the shop.....the uncle hugged her and he himself was filled with tears!!


Actually this victory was not just Aarushi's victory. This victory included the love of the mother, the courage of the father and the support of the uncle who owned the shop.
