Bangalore: They were all in their 20s and 30s, appearing for the Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC) examination. But they had very good reasons to aim for such a milestone. Chandrakala B.K., 27, a mother of two, said in sign language that she was taking the exam because she wanted a government job. She is a hearing- and speech-impaired woman. Like her, Nagaraj G., 34, Prashanth R. 36, A. Sudip, 27, and 15 others, all hearing impaired, are appearing for the examination in hope of getting a government job. Swayamvara Trust has, for the first time in the State, arranged for 21 hearing-impaired persons aged above 27 to appear for the SSLC examination.
