The first female firefighter in Rajasthan
Until recently, it was impossible for women to become firefighters in India. But Sita Khacik changed all that. She convinced the training institute to open up to women, and went on to become the first trained female firefighter in Rajasthan. She is now attending fires and saving lives - including six people from a Jaipur factory fire.
