While both Navjot and Anurag are young boys who have shown extraordinary performance in board examinations, a 50-year-old mother to four and a grandmother to two, Lakyntiew Syiemlieh also passed her Class 12 exams after dropping out of Class 10 back in 1988. The Meghalaya Board of School Education's Higher Secondary School Leaving Certificate (HSLLC) examination results were declared on July 13 and Syiemlieh got third division. While speaking to a media outlet, the 50-year-old said that she has now decided to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in her favourite language, Khasi.
According to reports, Syiemlieh had earlier dropped out of Laitumkhrah Presbyterian School in Shillong because of her weakness in mathematics. However, it was back in 2008, when her love for re-learning began after she was asked by residents of her village to teach pre-schoolers for a salary of Rs 500. In 2015 Syiemlieh reportedly joined the evening school at the National Institute of Open Learning and in 2017 she cleared her class 10 examinations.
