My husband attacked me with acid. He wanted to burn me, my dreams, and my existence. 

But here I am after surviving 75 percent body burns!

As a single mother, I have not just fought for myself but for my children every day. 

I didn’t stop there, I have spent years working with marginalised women at the grassroots. I worked tirelessly with and for undertrial women living in jails. 

My new job also includes working at a restaurant. I have realised one thing, courage and economic security gives us the will to fight everything in this world. 

But, I managed to get a job and work for so many years, but not all acid attack survivors can’t. 

No one wants to employ us. So many young acid attack survivors struggle to make ends meet.

Things can change if food chains like Chaayos commit to employing acid attack survivors. Chaayos is an Indian brand. They have outlets across the country and I feel if they employ acid attack survivors, there will be more and more brands that will follow their steps. 

Please sign my petition and ask Chayos to employ acid attack survivors.

This can be the beginning of more and more employment opportunities for acid-attack survivors. 

Let’s experiment with chai and recruitment.
