Mohammed Gaddafi Startup: Maa Ulaa With an aim to support himself and help others like him, Mohammed Gaddafi, who lost his legs at the age of 19, along with his friend Balaji, started Maa Ulaa in Chennai. The startup is India’s first bike taxi service run by the differently abled. Recalling how he got the idea, Mohammed said, “I saw a differently abled person on his tricycle at Marina Beach one evening. He parked in a corner and started begging. I was shocked, but when I spoke to him, he asked, ‘How can we lead better lives just because the government has provided bikes?’" Mohammed, who has a PhD in history, has been a professor at Presidency College and has worked at two private firms.
