Sonali Mukherjee : An Inspiration

Welcome to india!



Yes its the same woman in both the photos, her name is Sonali Mukherjee and she hails from Dhanbad. She was 17 years old in 2003 when she faced an acid attack while she was fast asleep in her house and suffered from 70% burns on her face, neck, cheek and arms. The acid also melted her skin and flesh on her nose and cheek.
She could barely see and had become partially deaf, while reports say that those men were trying to make sexual contact with her to which she denied and fell victim to them.

Her story remains untold to millions while she is becoming an inspiration to millions!!
Jharkhand based Chittaranjan Tiwari was the one who came forward, defying all the social norms and held her hand forever.
They've been happily married.
The attack was a shock to her whole family, her mother slipped into depression and her grandfather had a cardiac arrest that led to his death.
Sonali Mukherjee has gone through 22 surgeries, for which her father had to sell everything they had.
With no help from the state or centre.
She had even asked for euthanasia as life was not easy for her, which was also declined the government.
.Once she quoted :

                      "Half a life, with half a face"

And yeah i forgot to tell that the culprits were released on bail and roam freely.
Judicial system of India!
