Sometimes a story does more than just get read. It moves people to act.

When The Better India shared Nikhil Bharadwaj’s story, readers met a 25-year-old former Rapido driver whose life had changed within minutes after a devastating train accident.

Nikhil lost both his arms in the accident. As he lay injured and called for help, several people around him chose to film what was happening instead of stepping forward.

The experience stayed with him. So did his determination to rebuild his life.

A journey back to independence

Before the accident, Nikhil earned a living as a Rapido driver.........
