There’s no turning back for Darshana from now on


SEREMBAN: Little G. Darshana, who was denied enrolment in a public school last week, could not contain her excitement as she walked through the main entrance of SK Taman Rasah Jaya here to begin Year One.

The seven-year-old, a non-citizen who was taken in by her legal adoptive parents when she was just a few days old, was a picture of joy as she grabbed her schoolbag from mother V. Malliga, 48, and walked past the security guards at the main gate.
