Zainab

This is the story of Zainab, a 13-year-old girl who is in the eighth grade in Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya, Sangam Vihar, Delhi. She lives with her parents and three siblings.One day while talking to her friend, Zainab came to know that her friend was being exploited by her maternal uncle for a long time. Her friend was hesitant to tell her family because she feared they might stop her from continuing her education. Zainab empathized with her friend's situation and encouraged her to share the incident with her family. When her friend didn’t do so, Zainab decided to talk to her family about her situation. She went to her home and shared everything with her mother. Her mother understood the whole story and punished the girl's maternal uncle by throwing him out of the house. 

Zainab also told her friend about child helpline number 1098 and how she could get help. Her friend called the child helpline and shared all her problems witht hem.The girl's family lodged a complaint to her maternal uncle, due to which he was arrested and lodged in the police station. Gradually, Zainab helped her friend regain her confidence. Together, theynow understand the problems that many girls face, and they work towards finding solutions.
