Meet Ganesh Baraiya, Just 3-Foot-Tall Gujarat Doctor Who Overcame All Odds To Pursue Medicine

A 23-year-old Dr Ganesh Baraiya did not give up when the Medical Council of India disqualified him from pursuing MBBS owing to his short height some years back.

Three-feet-tall Dr Baraiya, however, did not fall short of his determination. He took the help of his school principal, approached the District Collector, the state Education Minister, and then knocked on the doors of the Gujarat High Court.

Even after losing the case at the Gujarat High Court, Dr Baraiya did not lose hope. He approached the top court, won the case in 2018, took admission into MBBS in 2019, and now after finishing his MBBS he is working as an intern at Sir-T Hospital in Bhavnagar.
