Amid calamities, emotional tragedies,?and general despair about the human race, there's humanity, humility, and kindness.
In what looks like a case of mass compassion, many people came forward to help a blind law student, who chose education over marriage.?
In a series of tweets,?Sucharita Tyagi, a Mumbai-based RJ shared the soul-stirring story of?Nikita Shukla.?
Nikita, who's completely blind was abandoned by her family when she shared her will to study. As she refused to get married and was firm on studying further, her parents asked her to leave the house.
Since then, Nikita has been managing on her own. In order to get started, she took some help from her friends and professors at her college, but there's only so much that they can do.?
Read her full story here:
1.?Sucharita tweeted Nikita's story on her twitter account.
2. She explained how tough it is to make those calls. A matter of sheer luck!?
3. And how she came across Nikita, who seemed like any another caller from Mumbai.?
4. Until she knew about her story.?
5.?Sucharita was shocked to find that Nikita was completely blind.
6. But Nikita didn't let her family's?coercion affect her decision.
7. She decided to study anyway, with or without her family's support.?
8. Initially, she took help from her friends. But there's only so much that college students can do.?
9. Some professors also?chipped in!
10. Sadly, it wasn't enough.
11. She only ate one meal a day from the 20-free-dinners she got.
12.?Sucharita reveals that Nikita didn't tell her story until she asked her.?
13. And that's what compelled?Sucharita to get help for her.
14. The good folks in Mumbai poured help from everywhere.
15. And they got some mighty cheques in Nikita's name.
16. Everyone just helped, without questioning Nikita's credibility.?
17. They've now given all the money to Nikita.
18. Which she will use to study?further.
19. And will be able to eat 3 meals a day.
20.?Sucharita also thanked her intern.?
21. And the lovely people in Mumbai for the generous donation.
Apparently, no one asked for proof and no one even considered the thought of the girl running away with the money. Soon, Nikita was handed over the cheques and with the help of the money raised her tuition, hostel and canteen fee will get covered.
It's true that when you try hard enough, the entire universe conspires to make it happen, and somewhere, in Nikita's success, these humble folks in Mumbai are responsible too.?
