Ganesh Baraiya, 3-feet-tall doctor, wins legal battle, secures first medical officer post
Ahmedabad: Dr. Ganesh Baraiya, who stands three feet tall and weighs 20 kilograms, is just 25 years old and has scripted an extraordinary milestone after a long legal struggle that reached the Supreme Court, securing his first appointment as a medical officer.
He will report for duty on Thursday, in his first assignment as a medical officer, bringing to a close an inspiring and hard-fought journey. Born with dwarfism and assessed with a 72 per cent locomotor disability, Baraiya’s entry into active government service marks a significant personal triumph over physical limitations and systemic barriers. Baraiya aspires to specialize in paediatrics, dermatology, or radiology, reports The Times of India.
