Great achievement mam, pearls grown in cashew orchards. Veerabalu from Cuddalore.

Mam, you visited my college once. I am preparing for IAS after seeing you.

Thank you so much, ma'am! Please share your answer copies. Also, do you have a Telegram Channel?

Good information. Thanks a lot.

Hi mam, I am motivated by all your interviews. Currently, I am working in the private sector, but I would like to choose service as my career.

What could be better

Mam, if you speak in Tamil, Tamil medium students will understand better. English is just a language. First, explain to people in your state, then to everyone.

They say you can become a collector even if you study in Tamil medium, but they don't speak a single word in Tamil. They speak as if they are reciting what they studied.
