Mittal Patel, who hails from Gujarat, is the daughter of farmers. With the desire to become an IAS officer, she went to Ahmedabad, and in the meantime, enrolled herself for a journalism course in Gujarat Vidyapeeth. This was the turning point in her life as she decided to get into social work for the underprivileged. Mittal started an NGO called ‘Vicharta Samuday Samarthan Manch’ (VSSM) to solve their problems. She arranged to provide education to the tribal children in a tent, and struggled to get voter cards made for the tribal people. Voter cards have now been made for nearly 20,000 people, and 5,000 of them have also found jobs for a livelihood. Mittal has been working for 28 nomadic tribes and 12 notified tribes (NT-DNT) for the past 10 years.
