49 year old Saseendra became the first woman in Kerala to drive the official vehicle of Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan as he took the salute at a passing-out parade at the Ramavarmapuram Police Academy in Thrissur on Tuesday. The event was doubly special for Saseendra – it was also the passing-out parade of the first batch of the women’s battalion formed under the state police force. “It’s a big responsibility to drive the CM’s vehicle. You can’t even make a small mistake. You cannot jerk the jeep even a little. So I had to be mentally prepared for it. I trained for the event for three weeks by driving twice in the day, morning and afternoon,” she said about her experience.
