In a touching incident on Tuesday, April 8, the headmaster of a government-aided middle school located behind the Alangudi bus stand in Pudukkottai ensured two students didn't miss their annual exams.

Arjath (Class VIII) and his younger brother Mohammed Yunus (Class VI), residents of Kalifullah Nagar AD Colony, failed to appear for their exams.

Headmaster Susairaj, concerned by their absence, visited their home with another student. On seeing him, the boys fled and hid in a nearby cashew grove, stated a report by The New Indian Express.

Undeterred, the headmaster tracked them down, handed them over to their mother, and brought them back to school in full uniform to write their exams. His dedication was appreciated by parents and villagers alike.
