About
Sarika was born in a village called Gulripurwa in Uttar Pradesh , India. She is the third child amongst the seven children born to her parents. As common in almost every rural India, what is known of her date of birth is just the year she was born in.
She's now 16 years old and very much happy that she has the chance to complete her education. Sarika was compelled to drop out of school after completion of class 5. The reason was because her mother had been diagnosed with a mental disorder. Sarika was responsible of taking caring of her sick mother. As her father works as a laborer in Lucknow Uttar Pradesh, earning only INR 2000 a month, he remained mostly away from home, therefore not having a chance to be with his wife.
Now that Sarika's mother is recovering; she wants to continue with her education with the full support from her family. English is her favorite subject and after attaining her education she aspires to be a teacher so that she can impart knowledge to disadvantaged children, and also earn a living at the same time. Besides, she is also very fond of tailoring. She is very determined to complete her schooling and attend college.
