"Initially, I had faced difficulty from the villagers when I tried resist any minor girls' marriage in my village. But gradually, the villagers started supporting me. I got help from the police and local administration as well. The practice of child marriage might have become more unpopular, but it is still rampant in this areas," Anjali added.
Anjali imarried on her own condition five months back. But she is still continuing with her studies. "I want to complete my studies. I want to be admitted in an university and complete my post graduation. I dream of being a government officer and work for our state," she added.
