Miss India TT delegates - beautiful and brilliant

Among the beautiful who will be vying for the title of Fem Miss India TnT are Ameerah Aziz who is from Champs Fleurs, Nadia Deonarine from Princes Town, Rianna Kavita Persad from D’Abadie, and Geeta Beepath from Tarouba.

The organisers of this event have chosen to explore the history of India by giving the girls assignments researching the various rivers so that they can give a brief background on the respective rivers. The four beauties will represent the rivers, Indus, Yamuna, Govadari, and Betwa. Each girl has already compiled notes about these water courses to be read on the night of the competition. Ameerah Aziz, 18, is presently pursuing her goal of becoming a mechanical engineer. While many may think that this is a job for a man, Ameera thinks that with the rise in technology and computers, she’s heading in the right direction. “The whole concept of understanding the way machinery operates is very interesting. “Being able to repair or invent a part that can make it work better is another topic that one can consider in this field,” she said. Apart from studying hard to get her diploma in mechanical engineering Ameerah also loves to get all dressed up in the East Indian fashion for special occasions.

This shows the soft side of the girl who wants to handle the tough machines. The charming beauty, Nadia Deonarine, 21, is an employee of TOSL. She is head of the inventory department. Having taken the titles of Miss Princes Town and also first runners up to Miss St Stephen College, this ambitious young lady is now aiming for the Miss India title. She spends her spare time learning kick boxing, Latin dancing, cooking and swimming. Nadia is well respected in her community for her efforts to educate the youths on the dreaded AIDS disease. She noted that the best advice she ever got was: ‘Failure is success in disguise’.

Rianna Kavita Persad, 19, is into beauty culture. She is presently pursuing a number of courses dealing with skin, hair, nails and make-up. She noted that everyone should strive to maintain a good appearance. “The way you look on the outside really says a lot about what you think about yourself on the inside. “If you can’t love your body and your soul then you are in for a lot of mishaps in life,” she said with an air of authority about her. Already, she is learning how to speak to crowds so that she can educate those interesting on the topic of beauty culture. Rianna always seems to have an advice for her friends and relatives on the issue. She is quick to admit that she would like everyone to look beautiful and healthy. Geeta Beepath, 24, is also employed with TOSL in the engineering department. This intelligent young lady loves children. Spending a day at the Kindergarten reading stories and singing rhymes to the kids is very fulfilling for the lovely Geeta. She told People that her heart goes out to the children who are victims of physical abuse and those who are homeless. She noted that the government should put special plans in place to deal with these problems. “While a lot is done, there is still a lot more that can be done to help the innocent ones,” she said.
