She was extremely thrilled and she shared the news on Twitter where she attached a photo of her ‘Certificate of Offer’ from the University of Oxford.
Mind you, Deveshwar has had her own set of ups and downs in life.
She met with an accident while traveling from Hoshiarpur to Chandigarh when she was just 13 years old. In the accident, she broke her spinal cord and had become paralysed from the chest down. She fought for her life in the ICU for almost 4 months.
But, she was a fighter. She never let this incident come in her way and that’s when she decided that she would overcome every obstacle through proper education. And, that’s exactly what she did.
Finally, her parents agreed and they let her go to Lady Shri Ram College. Even her relatives advised her parents against sending her to Delhi but, she managed just fine in the big city.
Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh also congratulated her and wished her luck.
Netizens also congratulated Pratishtha for her achievement.
Her story is truly inspiring. Moral of the story: Never lose hope and never give up.
