That is Madhu Kumari, the Pakistani teenage refugee whose gentle smile indicated a successful culmination to her two-year struggle for education as she sat shy and beaming attending a science lecture. On Wednesday morning, Madhu finally managed to get admission in the government school near her house. By next week, she will be one among the students when she will get a uniform of her size. Mr. Agarwal had written to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in August after which the matter was highlighted by the media. When her case was highlighted by The Hindu on September 7, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj intervened and asked Mr. Kejriwal to help Madhu.
