A Life of Triumph - Rajalakshmi's Journey Beyond Disabilities

But as the saying goes, the courageous are those who rise above all the challenges. While it was difficult for her to accept that she had to use a wheelchair, it became her best friend.

Despite a provision of reservation for disabled people, she had to fight a legal battle to gain acceptance into the university of her choice. She pursued her Master’s in Dental Surgery and became a  Gold Medalist. She opened her own Dental Clinic, SJ Dental Square in 2013.

“I feel fortunate to explore two different lives in one lifetime. One in which I lived as an able-bodied woman and one that I continue to live now, of a differently abled woman,” mentions Rajalakshmi.
