Greeshma is the daughter of a farmer from Tumakuru district. Her father, Narasimhamurthy B R, was hit severely by the pandemic and could not collect sufficient money to pay for her school. "Despite not being able to attend classes as we were not in a position to pay the fees due to the COVID-19 crisis, my elder sister Keerthana helped me with the core subjects. I began learning language subjects three months before the examination but was shattered to know that my name was not registered by the school," said Greeshma in a statement to The Indian Express. A student of Alva’s English Medium High School, Dakshina Karnataka, she now hopes to secure admission in a college with science stream.
