Noopur Singh was declared ‘born dead’ and thrown in the garbage by the doctors and a relative saw signs of life in the baby and picked her up from the garbage dump. She grew specially-abled due to the first few minutes of negligence by the doctors, said reports.

She also got through the B.Ed entrance test in the first attempt. Currently, she is working as a teacher and teaches children in a playgroup and also gives free education to Class 10 students.

The overnight star is an inspiration to a lot in the village and now people are visiting her house to congratulate on her win.
