Amita shared the harsh reality of her upbringing in a slum and the societal pressures her father faced. “They used to say you can’t afford to educate her so much by selling tea. Save money and build a house instead. How long will you keep living on the streets with grown-up daughters? Anyway, one day they will leave as they are someone else’s wealth, and you will have nothing left. Yes, I live in a slum, but now I am not ashamed,” she added.

She concluded her post with a tribute to her parents’ faith in her. “Whatever I am today is because of my Papa and Mummy who believed in me so much and never thought that one day I would leave them but instead thought that I would educate my daughters.”
