Srikanth Bolla (born 7 July 1991) is an Indian industrialist and the founder Chairman of Bollant Industries.
[1] Srikanth Bolla was born on 7 July 1991 to a Telugu family in Seetharamapuram, Machilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
[3] His childhood was full of struggle; there was no electricity, education was a luxury, and his family's income was less than what was needed to survive.
Even though he topped his class with a 98% on his XII board exams, the school didn't have accommodations for visually impaired pupils.
Bolla filed a court case, and after a six-month wait, his perseverance paid off when he won, becoming the first visually impaired student in Andhra Pradesh to study science.
[9] Bollant Industries manufactures areca-based products and provides employment to several hundred people with disabilities, with funding from Ratan Tata.
