In a community, where letting women drive is too iconoclastic, delve into the story of the woman who has beaten men in their own game multiple times. Know about what it takes to be a female rally racer, and how she is making it easier for those interested.  Bani Yadav is the fastest woman rally driver in India and the only woman in India to win all the major rallies that took place in the country,  a mother of two, who started racing as a profession only 4 years ago with the encouragement provided by her husband, after her kids had grown up.
