International Women’s Day

Every Year The International Women’s Day is a day to remember as ROSHNI Members and Members of the Self Help group come together to celebrate the event.

ROSHNI takes great efforts to organize the day with a message to women for awareness and empowerment.  A minimum of 500 women gather every year for the event and take home a message.  They would meet a woman luminary who has crusaded for the cause of women or in the process of entertaining through a film or a street play, ROSHNI gives women the message of strength and rejuvenation for a better tomorrow for women.

The Women’s Day celebration of 2013 was very eventful. We had a Film on child sexual abuse since it was close on the heels of the “Nirbhaya” rape in New Delhi. It was also as a message of caution to women, especially mothers. It was followed by a very positive and proactive speech by the chief guest Mrs. Bhagyavathi followed by yet another inspiring speaker Mrs. Sudha Ravi of the Hindu Group.
