Though access to education has improved, those who are more educated remain unemployed because of the unavailability of formal jobs and low wages. Image
However, various organisations and individuals are working towards improving this situation by providing skill training and even creating job opportunities for the #ruralwomen across the country.

Some women carry the dreams of generations in their hands.

This Independence Day, let’s remember Urmila Saxena, a brilliant student who mastered a rare 8-subject BA, taught in a college, and believed strongly: “Women must be independent.”

Her legacy flows through her daughter, a scientist and educator, and her granddaughter, a civil servant, proving that one girl’s education can set in motion the freedom story of an entire family.

Swipe to see how her grandson, journalist Amit Bhatnagar, remembers his nani!

How far would you go to stay honest, even if it almost killed you?
IAS officer Rinku Singh Rahi didn’t stop.

Day 1: He made a clerk do sit-ups for peeing in public.
When lawyers protested, he did the sit-ups himself. The video went viral.
36 hours later, he was transferred. But this wasn’t the first time he challenged the status quo.

"You're always on Instagram when I need you."Her daughter’s words hit harder than any warning ever could.

Not because they were harsh, but because they were true.

At NIMHANS' SHUT Clinic in Bengaluru, parents are learning to unplug first so their children can follow.

This is called a digital fast. And it’s helping families reconnect in ways that notifications never could.

Scroll down to see how this quiet movement is helping India fight the invisible pandemic of screen addiction. >>

She was born into privilege. But at 16, she chose patriotism over pearls.

Saraswathy (Rajamani) – once a wealthy heiress in Rangoon – became one of India’s youngest and bravest spies for Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.

She smuggled secrets from British camps, staged a jail rescue disguised as a dancer, and took a bullet for her country — all before she turned 18.

This Independence Day, we remember the girl who gave up everything and never asked for it back.

Swipe through her untold story.>>
