Cricketer Rishab Pant: The act of Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant in helping a meritorious girl student from Karnataka secure college admission by paying her fees has won many hearts. People across the country are appreciating the cricketer’s thoughtful gesture in supporting the education of a deserving student.
Rishabh Pant's timely help enabled Jyoti Kanaboor Math, who, despite scoring high marks in her II PUC (Class 12), was struggling to afford college admission due to financial constraints.
Jyoti, a resident of Rabakavi village in Bilagi taluk, had scored 83 per cent in her II PUC board exams. Although she dreamed of pursuing higher education, poverty and financial difficulties became major hurdles. Her father, Teerthayya, runs a small tea stall in the village and was unable to bear the cost of his daughter’s education.
