Resham Fatma Chevening Scholarship has become an inspiring story of courage as the Ranchi-based scholar becomes India’s first acid attack survivor to receive the prestigious UK Government-funded Chevening Scholarship. She will pursue a Master’s degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) after being selected from thousands of applicants worldwide. A survivor of an acid attack nearly a decade ago, Resham continued her education with determination, earning degrees from Jamia Millia Islamia and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). Her achievement reflects academic excellence, resilience, and leadership. Resham hopes her journey will encourage women, students, and survivors to pursue higher education and never give up on their dreams despite life’s toughest challenges.
