Manbir Kaur Pakistan Sikh girl among toppers of Class X exam.

Lahore:  A 15-year-old Sikh girl in Pakistan has emerged as the first girl from the minority community to be among the toppers of the Class 10 examination.  Manbir Kaur from Nankana Sahib district of Punjab province has secured more than 1,000 marks in Secondary School Examination (SCE) this year, securing 1,035 marks out of 1,100.

Gill, who belongs to ruling PML-N, told PTI today that the Punjab government will offer Manbir a scholarship at any institution for higher studies.

Manbir's father Giani Prem Singh is the head granthi at Gurdwara Sri Nankana Sahib, some 80 kilometres from here.  Their house is not away from Gurdwara Janamasthan, the birth place of Baba Guru Nanak.

"The whole family is delighted over her brilliant performance. Manbir used to study 12 hours a day and her hard work paid off," he said, adding the Sikh community in the district is proud of his daughter.
