What Are You Most Passionate About?

I am most passionate about the cause of the betterment of women in my city, especially those who are suffering from domestic violence.

Who Is Your Hero? Why?

My personal hero is my grandmother, Mrs. Beechana. She suffered greatly in her life being illiterate and a victim of domestic violence. So she made it her personal goal to ensure that we girls were educated and would only think of marriage after a decent education. She inspired me to take up the cause of women empowerment.

What Project Would A Laptop Help You With?

Currently I am a counselor of a project called Shaktidayini which works with women who are victims of domestic violence. The goal is to empower and enlighten as many women as possible. Shaktidayini means Goddess of strength and this is what we work towards: awakening the goddess in all the women we work with. Empowered women in turn create aware and empowered children who are the future.
