She is Ramabai Ranveer, a 47-year-old mother from Ambajogai in Maharashtra.
She works hard to support her family and her daughters’ education. After the death of her husband, the responsibility of raising and educating her two daughters fell on her shoulders.
When she heard about a local marathon called Amrit Daud, she decided to participate. The winner would receive Rs 3000. For many people, Rs 3000 may seem like a small amount.
But for a mother struggling to support her children’s dreams, that money meant something much bigger. It could help with education. It could help with fees. It could help her daughters move one step closer to their dreams.
She did not have proper running shoes, professional sportswear, or special training. But she had something much stronger than all of that....a dream for her daughters and the determination to make sure their education continued.
On the day of the race, she arrived wearing a simple saree and slippers. Around her were younger runners, many of them better prepared and wearing proper running shoes. But Ramabai was there with only one goal in her heart: to run for her daughters and their future.
As the race began, her slippers started causing problems and slowing her down. She could have stopped. She could have given up. But she didn’t. Instead, Ramabai removed her slippers, held them in her hands, and continued running barefoot.
Imagine that moment. A 47-year-old mother, running on the road without shoes, wearing a saree, competing against younger runners with proper running shoes. Every step must have been difficult, but the thought of her daughters and their education gave her the strength to keep moving forward.
And then, she did something truly incredible. Ramabai Ranveer crossed the finish line first and won the marathon. She won the Rs 3000 prize money that she had hoped to use to support her daughters’ education.
Respect to you, Ramabai Ji. There is no greater warrior than a mother.
Maharashtra govt should help fund her daughters’ education. When so many freebies and welfare schemes are being offered, why shouldn’t meaningful support be given to those who truly need it and are working hard to build a better future?
