Leela Roy: A Pioneer for Freedom and Women’s Empowerment

Leela Roy, born on October 2, 1990, shares her birthday with Mahatma Gandhi, but her legacy stands as a testament to her unique contributions to India's freedom movement and women's rights. A daughter of Girish Chendia Nag, a retired District Magistrate of Dacca, Leela's upbringing instilled in her a deep sense of justice and duty towards her country. Her early education at Brahmo Girls School in Calcutta and later at Eden High School laid the foundational pillars of her impressive academic journey, culminating in an Honours degree in English from Bethune College.
