Often debates on genderequality bothers me,makes me think.Before you outrage,No..Gender equality doesn't mean men & women are alike but that both are given equal opportunities, recognition & value. Where a large section of women don't suffer because of their gender. #Tweet4Bharat

Gender equality is the need for the hour today. There has to be a constant renaissance amongst us as a society. There must be a wide acceptance that genderequality is a human right. Along with this societal conditioning we need strong political will too. #tweet4bharat

When Flight Lieutenant Avani Chaturvedi, broke through the Indian Air Force glass ceiling & became the 1st Indian woman to fly a fighter jet solo it not only inspired but showed us the armed forces commitment to creating a level playing field. She said "Machine knows no gender"

This journey of Avani Chaturvedi a 23yr old from Rewa,a not so developed region to becoming India's 1st female fighter pilot summarizes what's equality- it's the equality of spirit, opportunities & celebration.Not just empty sloganeering or echo chamber signalling. #Tweet4Bharat

PM Modi, during his 1st Independence Day speech as PM '14, said, “Parents ask their daughters where they were if they return home late.But,do they do the same with their sons? This was heartening to hear. A PM showing his genuine concern towards GenderEquality. #Tweet4Bharat

When the state makes BetiBachaoBetiPadhao its mission & not just a slogan we knw that the country is headed towards the right path.The improving statistics surely tells us that the awareness campaign is making a difference & society's view of girl child is changing. #Tweet4Bharat

Major steps like Abolishing Triple Talaq & making it a criminal offence empowered defenseless married women to face the situation if ever they have to.Only when either genders are given equal opportunity to fight for their dignity or rights it is a gender just law. #Tweet4Bharat

The current Indian Govt sanctioned permanent commission to women officers in Indian Army it was heartening. Stree Shakti for Rashtra Shakti. Shoulder to shoulder with men for a safe India is Ma Durga's India. This corrective step against gender bias is commendable. #Tweet4Bharat

Surveys have shown that when a family has been faced with a health scare and has access to limited resources then in general, healthcare & nutrition of men are given credence. Schemes like AyushmannBharat help bridge this gender gap in availing healthcare services. #Tweet4Bharat

Current work place scenarios or the much talked about film industries are hearing emboldened voices about gender pay gap, hostile enviroments &  unequal promotional opportunities. This needs to be addressed with fair policies & better understanding. #GenderEquality #Tweet4Bharat

COVID-19 is shifting other household dynamics. Domestic responsibilities that women bear have increased.
Non biological defined roles must adapt. Erode lopsided distribution of household chores & child care. These are little things that'll help achieve #GenderEquality at homes.

From 2014 I have seen a genuine, concerted efforts through policy, laws and governance that ensure genders are given a equal platform. The current govt even passed the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act empowers transgenders. This IS GenderEquality. #Tweet4Bharat

On Feb '20 PM Modi said "that no country or society can claim to achieve holistic development or become a just society without gender justice". Are we politically moving in the right direction towards achieving GenderEquality?Yes. But as a society a long way to go. #Tweet4Bharat

I want to see women taking an active part in guiding this country's destiny - which is achieved through greater participation in fields which matter: politics, judiciary, administration, academia, innovation and opinion industry. #Tweet4Bharat

There's miles to go b4 we achieve the end goal where recognition of the fact that gender equality not only ensures a thriving society bt a flourishing nation. Education is the key. Barriers are being broken, glass ceilings shattered but I'll say Yeh Dil Maange more #Tweet4Bharat
