Ranju, belonging to a middle class family, has demonstrated that physical deformity does not prevent one to achieve what one wants.

After passing her Doctorate degree Ranju learnt computers and also tried her luck in Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) Examination in 2006, but was barred, as she was visually impaired.
However, it did not deter her from pursuing her career, as after overcoming the legal issues, the Government allowed her to join as State Revenue Officer in Jharkhand.
