Hello beautiful people. I hope you all are doing
great. I know I am little late for Women’s day special article (apologies!!!)
but better late than never. So here I am with an article which was supposed to
be collaboration between me and one of my very talented blogger friend but I
guess I am little late in publishing my article (Link for his article is at the
end of this post). So here I go.
‘Women’s empowerment’, this word has really being
in focus ever since the interview featuring Mr. Rahul Gandhi was aired on a
news channel. But the real question is, are women in India really empowered?
The answer, unfortunately is NO. In our society, the position of a girl is
still lower than a boy. We worship goddesses but even today, many girls are
killed even before they can come into this world. In many families, a girl is
not treated equal to her brothers just because she is a girl. A girl deserves love,
care, education, respect and most importantly freedom in every possible way.
She deserves to grow and become successful, doesn’t she? She is strong enough
to fight for her rights & freedom, but why does she have to?
I am the only child of my parents & my parents
were always proud of the fact that they are parents to a girl. Me and many
other girls like me are blessed to have such parents. But not every girl is
given a chance to enter into this world, study and become independent. Just
yesterday, one of my friends was eve teased on the roads. Is this how women’s
day is celebrated?? Celebrating women’s day will actually make sense when every
girl is gets her right, right to live and be free.
All I can say is that a girl needs to be respected
not because she is someone’s daughter or sister, but because she is a human
being. So today let us salute the spirit of womanhood. Please feel free to
leave your thoughts about Women’s empowerment in the comments down below.
