Anjana Ingti is like any other nine year old girl, she attends school with her older sister, she has lots of friends and she excels in her class work. However, this has not always been the case; Anjana is from the remote village Garbhanga, where attending school is not the norm.
In 2007 Anjana was invited to become a pupil at Parijat Academy, a school set up for underprivileged, tribal children. She bravely said her goodbyes to her family and took advantage of this great opportunity.
On her arrival at Parijat Academy, Anjana felt very apprehensive and homesick, speaking only her native language of Karbi and finding it very difficult to communicate with her teachers and other students. However, in the year 2010 Anjana is a bright, energetic and caring young girl who can now impressively speak fluent Assamese. Anjana is also currently learning English and speaks in a very active student within the school and is very helpful to all of her teachers. Her favourite subjects are Assamese and maths.
In her free time, Anjana enjoys singing Assamese songs and practicing her tribal dances, known as Karbi and Bihu. Anjana aspires to become a nurse in the future and hopes to improve the health of the people in her native village. Even though Anjana rarely visits her home and misses her family, she has fun at Parijat Academy.
