Profile of Trisha Shetty
Trisha was born
and brought up in Mumbai in an affluent family. She was a bright student from
her school days. Ever since her college days, she wanted to become a lawyer.
She was determined to shine in the legal profession. For that, Trisha first did
B. A. in Political Science and Psychology from Jai Hind College and later did
Bachelors of Law.
The infamous
Delhi Rape case of Nirbhaya in 2012 changed the heart of Trisha. She was no
more looking forward to earn big bucks through proper legal channel. She wanted
to do something for women who are being sexually abused and because of social
pressure don’t disclose molestation. There was no proper platform available
that can educate these women about legal rights and how to access them.
Trisha along
with her sister Neha launched an online portal for the same purpose. She named
the portal – SheSays (shesays.com) indicating a will to give voice to women who
have been sexually exploited. This platform started to get lots of eyeballs and
thousands of volunteers also come forward to help other women.
Obviously,
Trisha’ novel attempt has been recognized and appreciated by every right minded
people. She has, in fact, become a voice for women who have to face sexual
molestation in one or other forms daily. The Bangalore mass molestation on 31st
December 2016 only highlighted the needs of people like Trisha in our society.
