Nidhi Chaudhary, IAS Director National Gallery of Modern Art, Upskill yourself, stay fit, strive for becoming best version of yourself while retaining femininity. Cherish being a woman. Embrace yourself with your flaws and blemishes. We don’t have to act, behave and feel like men to excel. On the contrary, we must maintain emotional, sensitive and caring side of ours. This Women’s Day, let’s pledge to be more woman than ever before. Only when women shine and grow in feminine way, they would be able to offer a complementary perspective in several walks of life.
Dr. Madhu Chitkara, Pro Chancellor Chitkara University, True progress is not about women rising alone—it’s about all of us rising together.

When we uplift each other—regardless of gender—we create workplaces, communities, and societies where talent thrives, ideas flourish, and success knows no boundaries.”

Syeda Afreen Banu S. Bellary, KAS, Since birth,in most of the cases, a female child possesses naturally stronger sense of responsibility compared to a male child. As she grows, this develops into exceptional multitasking abilities, enabling her to shoulder various commitments simultaneously—family, children, work, and social life. When a woman is empowered to be self-reliant, she not only transforms her family but also leads her community towards self-reliance in education, finance, and environmental sustainability. Happy Women’s Day!”
