Dr. S. Anukriti

Dr. Anukriti is extraordinary even though she is ordinary. Due to her special achievements, she has become a source of inspiration for women and youth today. Dr. Anukriti has been very brilliant and prodigious since childhood. She never took a single rupee as pocket money from her parents, nor did she buy or eat anything from a street vendor standing on the road. Didn’t do tuition even for a day, still stood first in every class.

She was born in Narnaul, but lived in Hisar for eighteen years and Delhi for seven years; For sixteen years now she has been living in America. But show off or ostentation has not even touched her or her husband. Be it summer or winter, as soon as they come to India, they adapt to the environment here.

Travelling by airplane for sixteen years she has visited about two dozen countries and travels by train or AC bus locally also, but apart from the cycle, she does not even know how to drive an Activa.

Dr. Anukriti Personal View

Anukriti says that she would not call her journey difficult, but today when looking back, it seems that few people, especially girls and women can prioritize their studies and career in many states of India.

“Due to the support and encouragement of my family, I did not face any such difficulty. My parents raised me and my brother in such a way that we never felt that our goals or aspirations were limited to our city, state, or country. Initially moving from a small town in Haryana to St. Stephen’s College in Delhi probably felt more of a difference for me and took some time to adjust.”

“But later the journey ahead was not too difficult for me. So, I would like to say to parents and guardians, take the initial decision of your children’s education very carefully, because they affect your whole life and career. Do not impose your interests on children; Take care of the interest of the children as well, and let them decide their path and destination.”

“The interest of parents is the biggest hindrance in personality development of children. All parents want their children to become doctors or engineers, which is not fair. There are many other areas in which children can achieve special achievements if they are allowed to go with their own will and interest. Yes, parental guidance and encouragement are very essential for children.”

“I don’t think I would have achieved so much without the guidance of my parents. My parents and other relatives never discriminated between me and my brother and never forced me to get married at a young age and pay less attention to my career.”

“As a child, I was always inspired to study and pursue higher education; The burden of household chores was never put on me. Now I have the full support of my husband (Prof. Siddharth Ramalingam); Together, we support each other’s decisions and careers as equals.”
