Despite holding one of the most prestigious administrative posts in the district, DC Kamei continues to embody a simple and grounded lifestyle, staying connected to her roots. In an age where high-ranking officials often distance themselves from everyday realities, she sets a refreshing example - just days earlier, she was spotted commuting in an auto-rickshaw, a rare sight for someone in her position.
Known for her accessibility and down-to-earth demeanor, DC Hannah Kamei is not only admired for her administrative acumen but also for her quiet yet powerful message: leadership can be humble, traditional, and inspiring all at once.
