Darpan News Desk IANS, 11 Feb, 2017 03:15 PM
    The 22-year-old student of Arab Islamic Culture at the revered Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi, has now become a sensation around the country.
     
    She rode her first bike when she was just 9 years old and even then she was wearing a hijab. 
     
    She firmly believes that her passion for bikes does not interfere with her faith.
     
    "Riding a motorcycle is in my genes," she says. 
     
    She also admits that being a woman biker in India is very different. 
     
    She's also part  of the Delhi Chapter of 'The Bikerni' group. It's basically a gang of women that aims at spreading women empowerment through the medium of motorcycles and encourage women to go on adventures they would have never thought to go on before.
