Mashal moved to Jaipur with her parents two years ago and scored 91 percent marks in her Class 12 CBSE exams this year.

According to Mashal’s doctor-parents, they decided to quit their jobs in Sindh and move to India after the Narendra Modi government came to power at the Centre. Having arrived in June 2014, the youth and her two siblings were admitted in a private school — the family is living in Jaipur on a Long-Term Visa.
