Meet 28-year-old Afsana Parveen, a social entrepreneur who has overcome all sorts of obstacles to runing 'Pehchaan Live Foundation' on all over India. Started in September 2014, Afsana has been educating underprivileged since then, conducting classes after sunset.

Afsana started her street school adjacent to a road leading to a slum under Ghansoli bridge in sector-1. Her inspiration came from the Nirbhaya case that took place in Delhi in 2012, which completely changed her as a person. Unable to escape thoughts of one of her loved ones falling victim to a Nirbhaya-like incident, she searched for an answer as to why people committed such heinous crimes against women. After digging deep into her thoughts, she finally hit upon the root cause — illiteracy.
