Many would be shocked to know that India’s only woman mechanic is a mother-of-eight who has no issues working around 12 hours a day. Shanti Devi, 50, works at her automobile workshop at Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar (SGNT) in Delhi.
Devi insists that even though her job is hard, she loves what she’s doing. She along with her husband Ram Bahadur shifted from Madhya Pradesh to Delhi more than 20 years ago.
"Looking back, I can say that it has been an absolutely worthwhile experience. It does not bother me when people say that I must be one of the only female truck mechanics in India - I am proud of this,” she told Gulf News.
