*We learned new ways of helong and communicating through virtual world creating awareness in special topics if covid,cancer,mental Health, children care in second wave and much more
*The biggest challenge till now we face are the safety, gender issues,sexual and mental harrasment of women in society which kils the dreams and aspirations of many women who can shine and fly high bringing laurels to the society.Its a tough job and requires change of mindset of the patriarchal society which is a long way to go.”
