Happy women’s day! 

I am personally honored to be writing about women empowerment on international women’s day. I have seen strong women growing and reaching heights all around me. These women have continuously been inspiring me in one or the other way. 
This blog is dedicated to all the women who have significantly contributed to my life- 
  • My mom, I am so thankful to have such a beautiful and strong mom. You have always supported me and also always kept scolding me. You always lookout for the best in me. You have and always will be an inspiration to me. You have taught me 2 very important things in life, patience, and controlling anger. Thank you for scolding me showing me the right path. I love you so much and Thank you so much for always being there. 
  • Both my grandmothers, they are strong and independent. They have taught me to work hard. My grandmothers are the most modern grandmothers and I can proudly say that. I love them so much they taught me that there are no barriers in education and you can achieve what you wish to. 
  • My aunt has had a significant impact on my life. She has been there to save me from my brother and back me when my mom is scolding me. She is a strong pillar of support in my life. She is also always there for me no matter what. She is a bold woman and she is one of the inspirations for me to become a feminist. 
  • My teachers, since the beginning, have had a major contribution.  Kekre ma’am (ma’am you made me start reading at first and thank you for that), Vaishali ma’am (ma’am thank you for making me like maths), Chitra ma’am (thank you for making Wockhardt memorable in just 2 years), last but not the least Deepika ma’am, honestly the best supervisor (ma’am hope I wrote your spelling correct this time and sorry for dropping by your house anytime). All my teachers are honestly the best, they have made significant changes in my life. 
  • Sorry for mentioning you guys in the end but my friends (sisters too) you people have taught me many things. Shaila di(sorry) honestly you study a lot, control, please! I need to study because of you and thank you for always listening to me. Vidhi di and Khushi di you have been there to listen to me and tell me the possible outcomes. I won’t mention my friend's names and contributions cause then this blog will never end. The one thing that is worth mentioning is that they have changed me and honestly prepared me to face bullying if you know the people I am dedicating this to, also the girls who have taught me to get ready and look good in pictures. Sorry for canceling the plans last moment. 
I am extremely thankful for having such beautiful and strong women in my life who have always supported me. Thank you to everyone in my life and I am happy that I have you all in my life. Sorry if I have ever irritated or hurt you, I didn’t do it on purpose. 

Thank you and Sorry!

The world is changing…   I feel like I have talked a lot about how the world has been bad for women. Let's now talk about how the world is changing for the sake of women. It’s like I never looked on the other side of the story.   Let’s now discuss the side where people are making a difference in society. There are people, different organizations and groups working hard to make a difference in the world so that it is a place where everyone is equal.   World wide people have been trying to end all forms of discrimination against women. The UN has set goals that are to be achieved in order to demolish gender inequality.   Some of the goals the UN has set are-   Eliminate all forms of violence against all women and girls in the public and private spheres, including trafficking and sexual and other types of exploitation. Eliminate all harmful practices, such as child, early and forced marriage. Recognize and value unpaid care and domestic work...

How does the way of dressing change people’s mindset? Hello again!   Is a woman’s safety decided by the clothes she wears?  There’s this incident that took place recently. I learned from that incident! I learnt that if a female wears short clothes it means she is inviting people to rape or harass her, isn’t it true?   I use Instagram where I came across a video of a woman commenting on a girl that she should get raped only because the girl was wearing a short dress.   The girl was harassed by the middle-aged woman. The girl narrated what happened.   She said, “This middle-aged woman addressed seven men at the restaurant to rape us because she felt we deserved it for wearing short clothes and bashing her unsolicited opinion. For speaking up against her primitive mindset”.   I was shocked and angry at the same time while watching the video. I was extremely mad at the woman who said that and I was completely in support of the girls w...

Building the world   Women of India have been making us proud. They are making us proud in every possible way. We have heard about them in sports, entertainment, literature, and politics. We have continuously known about them in the UN and the scientific fields. Vidisha Maitra, Paulomi Tripathi, and Eenam Gambhir are the 3 Indian women who made us proud through the power of speech in the UN. They made India proud just by the power of words.  Allow me to tell you a bit about the strong women we are reading about in this blog.  Vidisha Maitra is the Secretary to the Ministry of External Affairs and she became the pride of India when she strongly answered the Prime Minister of our neighboring country.   https://aajtak.intoday.in/story/india-right-to-reply-vidisha-maitra-first-secretary-pakistan-imran-khan-speech-at-un-updates-1-1123909.html Paulomi Tripathi is the junior-most officer in the Permanent Mission in New York who exposed Pakistan's lie...
