Chandni's journey from Kathir to Kanchan


- Vamaviswa-Anuradha Derasari

- Life is a struggle, to be successful, with the weapon of hard work and morale, one has to rub on the anvil of trouble

The path from the bottom of failure to the top of success is very difficult for a young woman. But a woman's strong morale, courage, passion and dedication to her goal make her cross this path.

Chandni Khan, who was born in a slum and fought for the rights of poor children and started studying ten years later, reached out to the internet.

Chandni was born in a slum. Poverty was everywhere. Due to financial constraints, he had to start working with his father at the age of playing sports to help the family. She and her dad would do magic shows on the streets, dance to the songs of the moon movie, walk on the ropes, do snake shows. If you don't earn during the day, you have to work at night. That did not stop the five-year-old Chandni's troubles. She had to go with the women of the neighborhood to weave paper, rags, etc. in the morning.

So Chandni didn't have anything like her childhood, how could she have fallen with black letters?

Chandni's father died seven years later. This put him in charge of the entire family financially. So he started working with a slum-brother. Who were working magic etc. Out of this he gets Rs. Were found. From this, Chandni started making a living for the whole house. But since that money was not enough for the family, Chandni started weaving paper, rags etc.

She would go out early in the morning to weave paper etc. Hearing the insults of the people in this business, the evil eyes of the men piercing her, when she was weaving papers, rags and other things in the dungeons, she was often bitten by dogs and the troubles did not stop.

Chandni, who was facing all these difficulties, was nine years old at that time.

Unable to plead guilty to theft without a reason, Swami Chandni went to the fields and started a business of plucking flowers and breaking corn stalks. At the age of ten, Chandni was working for an NGO. Came in contact with 'Bandhe Kadam'. This organization was working to educate the children of the slums. Chandni enrolled in school tonight and started studying months later.

Chandni recalls those days: I had never seen anything but rags in my life so I didn't even know how to hold a pencil. But I realized that education is the key to success in my future life. So I decided that what I really needed to do was learn how to do it right. So slowly I learned Hund letters, learned to write and my teaching journey started. Gradually I studied one standard after another and moved on.

Chandni realized the importance of education so she started a campaign for education awareness among the children of her slum area and the surrounding slums.

Chandni was explaining to the parents of the children in this slum that if the children get education, they will develop.

Chandni started night education schools in and around her slum area with the help of the NGO she was studying at.

Chandni's life journey continued with the study of education awareness with her own education, which turned out to be a turning point in her life.

Where she lived, she was arrested and jailed by the police for stealing some children from the slum area. In their area, the parents' money was lost. Chandni could not bear this and went to his aid. He went to the police station and argued with the inspector and released the poor children.

Chandni realized that it was necessary for someone to fight for the rights of the children of poor little boys and she became an activist for the rights of poor children.

The NGO started a tabloid magazine called 'Balak Nama' for the children studying in the slums. Chandni became the reporter of this magazine. Now she was in college and also learned English. So the cases of Chand's poor children were also written in English. Up to 2000 copies of this tabloid were distributed in a jiffy. So that NGO made Chandni the editor of this tabloid and not only because of his work for education awareness, he made him the national secretary of this organization.

What a lion of life! Editor from Uneducated! Bravo!

This does not stop the story of Chandni Khan. Chandni felt that the NGO he works for only wanted to address the issues of poor children above the age of 18 on education. The root of true awareness and the issues of poor children such as education, health and food are in children below 18 years of age. If their lives are awakened and given a proper turn, they will be educated by the time they become teenagers and their other questions will be solved. He left the organization and set up his own NGO, which Chandni named 'Voice of Slum'.

The organization was working for the rights of poor children. His focus was on education, health and nutrition for children under 18.

Chandni Khan was working. As life progressed, he came in contact with new technology and social media. Chandni learned computer, internet surfing, Facebook etc. parameters from her friend and today she has become one of the most used person on social media. Millions salute Chandni's life!
