Jammu and Kashmir: 21-year-old girl breaking all stereotypes as she drives auto rickshaw to support her father
Udhampur: Breaking all set rules and stereotypes, a Jammu and Kashmir girl is driving an auto rickshaw to help her father to earn a living.
21-year-old Banjeet Kaur from Udhampur district of Jammu and Kashmir has selected the career which sets her apart from most of the women of her generation.
“My father was a school bus driver but he lost his job as the schools remain closed due to COVID-19. He started driving auto-rickshaw but he was not able to earn sufficient. So I stepped-in,” Banjeet told ANI.
Banjee, however, said she wants to join defence forces in future.
“I am a second-year student and driving auto-rickshaw is like a part-time job,” she told ANI.
“We girls should be ready for every situation,” she added.
