Thiruvananthapuram: Ms Haritha V. Kumar, topper of the 2012 civil services examinations, is all set to take up her first assignment as Kannur assistant collector on June 26.
She has successfully completed her one-year training at the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration, Mussoorie, and will return to her home here on Saturday.
Her businessman father R. Vijayakumar, his wife C. S. Chitra and their twin sons, Sadheerth and Sadharsh, who are engineers, are eagerly awaiting her arrival, though they had visited her in Mussoorie last week.
Mr. Vijayakumar said, “Haritha’s training will end on Thursday and she will spend 10 days at home. She has to join as Kannur assistant collector on probation before June 30,” he said.
He recalled with joy that when he and his family members reached the LBSNAA after a two-hour road trip from Dehradun, Haritha was waiting for them at the gate.
“Security is high there and we also had to produce our identity cards.
Haritha stayed in a building named ‘Ganga’ on the third floor while we were provided with two rooms on the ground floor,” he said.
They spent two days sightseeing in Mussoorie along with Haritha and visited the Tibetan Buddhist Temple also.
