When 20-year-old Sunita was widowed just six months into her marriage, her mother-in-law, Kamala Devi, refused to let her life stop there.
Sunita’s husband died of a brain stroke in 2016, and instead of abandoning her, Kamala helped Sunita complete her M.A. and B.Ed., secured her a job as a school teacher, and arranged her remarriage to auditor Mukesh, all without any dowry.
Their family contradicted the norms and redefined a daughter-in-law as a daughter.
