The second tweet came from PM’s Twitter handle was of Mavika Alyer. She has survived a gruesome bomb blast at the age of 13 that blew off her hands and severely damaged her legs. However, this didn’t keep her away from obtaining her PhD.

‘I believe that education is indispensable for change. We need to sensitize young minds about discriminatory attitudes. We need to show people with disabilities as role models instead of showing them as weak and dependent. – @MalvikaIyer #SheInspiresUs,’ Malvika Alyer tweeted.

Acceptance is the greatest reward we can give to ourselves. We can’t control our lives but we surely can control our attitude towards life. At the end of the day, it is how we survive our challenges that matters most. Know more about me and my work- @MalvikaIyer #SheInspiresUs pic.twitter.com/T3RrBea7T9
