Thirty-five-year-old Sarika Uike belongs to Yavatmal, Maharashtra. She was born sighted to a low income family. After completing her Class 12 in 2007, Sarika wanted to support her father and she managed to get a job as a resource teacher on a caste quota. But it was a temporary posting at a low salary because she hadn’t completed her D.Ed.
Once she completed her degree in 2016, Sarika was made a permanent employee and offered a decent compensation as well. But two years later, life took an adverse turn and Sarika lost her eyesight due to a prolonged migraine problem.

Twenty-eight-year-old Shobha Pawar hails from a village in Raigad, Maharashtra. She belongs to a low income family. Shobha was born sighted but when she was in Class 6, she got high fever, after which she lost her eyesight.
As a result, she had to drop out of school, unaware of any special schools for children with blindness. She hopelessly remained confined to her home for the next four years, because her family did not know how anyone could lead a life with blindness.
