New Delhi: A bride from the state of Maharashtra is earning praises for her commitment towards her education when she sat for class XII Economics paper on her wedding day, even as her groom waited at a wedding hall. This Class XII student of Aurangabad is twenty-year-old Renuka Pawar, a resident of Harsul village, who was to wed Shankar on Saturday at a mass marriage ceremony and on the same day, she had her Class XII exams.

Hailing from a poor family which fell on still harder times after the death of her father, Pawar said education was important to her and she had worked hard to ensure it did not suffer a break. And therefore, she had insisted that the wedding would have to be scheduled in such a way that it did not clash with her exams.

As soon as she entered the wedding hall at around 2:15 pm Saturday, the people gathered there for three marriages welcomed her with a round of applause after being told the reason for her absence since morning and hurried entry.

A little while later, she and Shankar tied the knot along with two other couples at the mass marriage ceremony.

In an earlier incident, a girl from Karnataka appeared in the exam in full bridal attire. Just after tying the knot with her now husband, Shweta walked into her examination centre to write her academic exam. It almost seemed like a scene from a movie, with her husband happily waiting for his wife to complete her.
