She drives, She rules!

Meet Neelam—a woman who refused to stay in the passenger seat. Today, on my way home, I found more than just a ride, I found a story of strength. Stepping out of the metro, I was searching for an auto when I noticed her. A woman, standing tall, offering me a ride. For a moment, I hesitated. A female auto driver? Rare. Unexpected. But something about her felt different, strong, safe. So, I walked toward her and got in. As we drove, I couldn’t help but ask, “What made you choose this?” She smiled, a smile that carried both pain and power. “I had no choice. My in-laws tried to break me, my husband tried to silence me. But I decided to fight back.” Now every ride she takes isn’t just about reaching a destination. It’s about proving a point, reclaiming her life, and building a better future for her daughter, one where fear has no place. Neelam isn’t just driving an auto. She’s driving change.
