Washerman’s daughter bags prestigious US scholarship

Deepali Kannoujia, a 16-year-old student from a humble background, has been selected for the US Department of State’s Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study program. She is one of 30 Indian students chosen for this prestigious scholarship. Deepali, who supports her washerwoman mother, was admitted to Prerna Girls’ School, which aids underprivileged girls. She is excited about the chance to experience different cultures during her academic year in the US, starting August 19. This opportunity is a significant moment in her life.
