Meera Devi was affected by polio when she was a child and cannot walk properly. She has 2 daughters and 1 son. Her husband Munnu Chaudhary works as a laborer. They live below the poverty line. Meera sends her children to a local institute where free education is provided for the children.
One day she heard about Tara Akshar which had started in her village, and that it teaches reading and writing in just 30 days. She was keen to attend, but she was scared to show how keen, fearing that people would laugh at her because she was an illiterate adult trying to read. So instead she went to her friend's house, where she made an effort to study on her own.
One day, the Tara Akshar Instructor happened to pass by the house and saw Meera Devi engrossed in study, and trying to learn from her friend who herself was not very expert. He told Meera Devi that as she was so keen on studying, he was inviting her to join the Tara Akshar centre. Initially she refused, but later agreed - subject to the permission from her husband. She came to the centre the next day and started to study. She learnt well and passed the exam in June this year. Now she studies at her own home with her children.
