Extraordinary stories of courage and determination often come from the seemingly ordinary people.
Sometimes, you have no control over your circumstances, but you do have control over who you are and what you want to achieve. Such is the story of Komal, who is an cab driver from Delhi. Her story was shared by a woman on Facebook, and her post narrates the bold and challenging journey Komal has undertaken, in order to fulfil her dreams.
Komal is a 19-year-old girl, who has two older siblings and a younger one in her family. To fund her studies, she became a cab driver a year ago, and she will be done with class 12, this year.
