The
first Miss America pageant winner of Indian heritage was cheered by
family members halfway around the world.
NinaDavuluri’s grandmother told The Associated Press that she cried
when she saw the news on television.
“I
am very, very, happy for the girl. It was her dream and it was
fulfilled,” 89-year-old Vege Koteshwaramma said by phone from her
home in the city of Vijaywada, in the southern Indian state of Andhra
Pradesh.
The
24-year-old Davuluri , a U.S. native, will begin the first day of her
reign Monday the same way most of her predecessors did — with a
frolic in the Atlantic City surf. She will also speak at a news
conference about Sunday’s win.
Davuluri
wants to be a doctor and is applying to medical school, with the help
of a $50,000 scholarship she won as part of the pageant title. See more...
