Are you giving your support to Women’s Liberation

“You can tell the condition of a nationality by looking at the status of its women” – Jawaharlal Nehru

“As long as women continue to be in a position of receiving rather than giving, they shall continue to bear injustice’ – Kiran Bedi

“When I took up issues of women’s welfare, I was accused in India of voicing ‘foreign concerns’. I was told that Indian women don’t think like that about equality. But I would like to argue that if they don’t think like that, they should be given a real opportunity to think like that.” - Amartya Sen
