At just 21, Krishangi Meshram has etched her name in history as one of the youngest solicitors in England and Wales in recent times, adding another milestone to a remarkable journey that began unusually early.
Raised in the Iskcon Mayapur community in West Bengal and now based in the UAE, Krishangi first stepped into the world of law at age 15, enrolling for a law degree with The Open University (OU), UK.
By 18, she earned a First-Class Honours Bachelor of Laws (LLB), becoming the youngest OU student to achieve the feat. She then completed a Master’s degree and recently cleared the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE), formally entering the record books.
Speaking about her journey, Krishangi was quoted as saying, “Studying with flexibility not only gave me academic freedom but also taught me discipline, focus, and organisation. These skills helped me secure a role at an international law firm, where I am now gaining practical experience.”
She added that distance learning allowed her to balance studies with family commitments and travel. “I adopted strict routines, removed distractions, and approached my work with professional discipline from the start,” she said.
Her parents, Tapan and Indira Meshram, expressed their pride. “We are very proud of Krishangi’s achievement. When she started on this journey, we encouraged her to give it her best shot, but we couldn’t have anticipated such a remarkable outcome,” they said.
Krishangi’s interest in law began early. “After completing a short course on law from Harvard University, she developed an affinity for legal practice because it resonated deeply with her core values of justice and fairness. Discovering that law touches the lives of all in diverse ways, she was inspired to begin her journey as soon as possible,” her father told TOI.
Her upbringing in Iskcon Mayapur played a pivotal role. “Growing up in a serene and nurturing environment, away from toxic academic competition, Krishangi developed self-discipline, focus, and introspection from an early age,” he said.
For young students aspiring to achieve big, Krishangi’s parents advised, “Be open to exploring new avenues, take chances, and have a solid support system. Mental resilience is key to navigating ups and downs.”
On supporting children, Tapan and Indira added, “Parents should provide a comforting environment, keep communication open, and act as their children’s cheerleaders. This builds confident and happy individuals ready to pursue their dreams.”
