Breaking barriers & building future: A tribal's rise to the top
The New Indian Express Tirupati
|July 13, 2025
Naga Swamy Naik, a 50-year-old from a poor tribal family, has risen to become the Principal of Government Vocational College, setting an inspiring example for many.
His life is a testament to the power of relentless perseverance and a heart for service, demonstrating what can be achieved even against the steepest odds.
Born in Velugodu village in Andhra Pradesh's Kurnool district, Naik defied all social and economic barriers to become a college principal. His journey is not just inspiring but transformative. Naik belongs to the Sugali tribal community, a socially and economically disadvantaged group characterised by low literacy rates, minimal employment opportunities, and chronic financial instability.
