While talking to Media, he said, "From 1968 to 1970, I was the head teacher there when she was studying in school. We feel very proud of Draupadi Murmu. I remember once asking all the students what they wanted to do. Many of the children gave their own answers, but Murmu said she wanted to serve the people.'' Draupadi Murmu's aunt Saraswati Murmu has said that Draupadi has proved what women can do. She's struggled a lot all her life. It is the result of relentless struggle. She is extremely humble and grounded in nature. We are always together in happiness and sorrow. In our time, we girls were always told what we would do by reading and writing. People asked her what she would be able to do. Today she has proved to them what she can do.
