   She the Trendsetter- Dr. Rakhma Bai


Dr. Rakhmabai's story was a series of courageous actions that set history in motion. She followed each dream with decisive action. Rising above social convention, she stood up for her rights and created a legacy. Her story may not have reached too many lives, but it remains for people to be inspired by.

 

Owing to social norms that existed at that time, Rakhmabai got married at 11-years of age to the 19-year old Dadaji Bhikaji. As was convention at the time, she stayed at her parents house, this was the time she spent in educating herself under the guidance of her stepfather.

When Rakhmabai was still in school, her husband, Dadaji, insisted that Rakhmabai come and live with him in his house to which Rakhmabai refused. Dadaji soon filed a petition in the court of law. Rakhmabai told the court that she would rather go to jail than live with Dadaji. The case spanned 4 years until Dadaji was “compensated” in 1888, outside of court.

In the months leading up to the trial, Rakhmabai began writing letters to the Times of India. Rakhmabai's letters were viral and much followed both in India and abroad. 

After her court cases had concluded, under the guidance and support of Edith Pechey Phipson, the British director of the Cama Hospital in Bombay, Rakhmabai went to England to study in the London School of Medicine for Women in 1889. After her graduation, she returned to India in 1894. She first practiced medicine in Bombay marking her historical milestone of becoming India’s first practicing lady doctor. This marked the beginning of an illustrious career in medicine that also saw her write on child marriage and women’s rights.
