THE JOURNEY OF MANYA SINGH

At the age of 19, Singh decided to take part in the Miss India competition. She was motivated to take part in the competition to break the barriers of class and gender. She wanted to prove that coming from a lower-middle-class background did not mean she was any less capable of achieving her dreams.

Manya’s father is an auto-rickshaw driver. Growing up, Manya faced extreme poverty and had to take up a job at the age of 14, to support her family. Despite all these hardships and financial constraints, she managed to excel in her life. Her journey was full of odds and struggles. But she stayed focused on her determination and achieved her dreams. Manya has used her platform and fame to bring attention to the issues of poverty, gender discrimination and education. She has also founded a non-profit organization called ‘Manya Education Foundation’ to help empower underprivileged children and provide them access to quality education.

Manya’s parents always had her back. She started a part-time job at Pizza hut in Mumbai. When she told her dad about this, he started crying. But the very next day, her parents followed her to Mumbai and her father drove an auto rickshaw for a living.

In the beginning, Manya was rejected due to her facial features and the way she spoke English. But she never got demotivated and kept working hard.
