---- Rajshree Farakte

Married at 17 in a state where she didn’t speak the language — now a marketing lead who bought her own plot of land.


Passionate about dancing and education as a child, Rajshree was married at 17 before she could study further. She moved to Madhya Pradesh, where the language barrier left her isolated. Determined to contribute, she began selling bangles from home and joined a Self-Help Group — a decision that would change everything.
