I do have the knowledge that many Women in remote areas are deprived of the very basic necessities - Whisper (or any of its kind for that matter).<br /><br />Our Government is providing free bicycle for studying girls, Bhagyalakshmi Yojana for every baby girl born and so on. It feels really good.<br /><br />In the context of this subject matter, can we think of Government providing 'Whisper' to Women in remote rural areas who cannot afford it? This can easily be made a reality with the Department of Women & Child Development operating in association with the Primary Healthcare Centers, which are already been established and having a very strong and wide network across rural areas.<br /><br />Will this 'Whisper' reach the decision makers? :o)Prashanthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15722683275762143091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328856963570134734.post-72954460752851800452011-05-04T17:13:04.060+05:302011-05-04T17:13:04.060+05:30Prashant,

She washed the cloth and put it to dry in her backyard. A harmful insect settled on the rag. Without noticing the insect’s presence, she used this rag the next day.Unfortunately the insect entered her body through the vagina. She felt a serious stomach pain and was taken to hospital. After a week she died.<br /><br />There are more serious issues in our society. I do not know whom should we blame?Sahana Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06313761460595189822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328856963570134734.post-29766587658223803732011-04-26T15:40:37.682+05:302011-04-26T15:40:37.682+05:30Ramya, you are right!

Someone should be taking the responsibility to lead from front. And, clearly, now we lack real leaders with healthy intentions who can bring about changes in the Society.<br /><br />Well, proud to see your 'loud and clear' decision not to whisper about it.

But, somehow pulled myself back expecting it would come up in comments section and you did it!<br /><br />Along with the burden undergone within, Women are to face the torture from the outside world. This is something that should be thought seriously about and she should be given all the support possible. I always strongly feel that any mass revolution we wanted to happen in the Society, it should be initiated in Family first.<br /><br />Carefree.. haven't heard of it before :o)Prashanthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15722683275762143091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328856963570134734.post-42536958966647774082011-04-21T23:05:02.491+05:302011-04-21T23:05:02.491+05:30the thing that struck me was u actually blogged ab...the thing that struck me was u actually blogged about this ! way to go ...

And, this is where I think the change should be initiated - The Family.<br /><br />Divya, nice to see you back here in my Blog. It hurts when you still say Periods are a Curse for Women. It isn't; it really isn't. Anyways, it isn't your mistake to perceive Periods that way; bias lies on the part of Society. So, do you think it was unfair that me chose this topic for a writeup in my Blog?Prashanthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15722683275762143091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328856963570134734.post-70540834828116474912011-04-21T19:06:38.188+05:302011-04-21T19:06:38.188+05:30Our nation is just one of a kind where talking abo...Our nation is just one of a kind where talking about 'Sex' and stuff like the 'Women's Curse - Periods' is still seen as a cliche and not as a topic of discussion!

But, the responsibility certainly differs for the genders.Sahana Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06313761460595189822noreply@blogger.com
