Gender Inequality

It Is A Known Fact Too, That Discrimination Starts From Even Before The Girl Child Is Born And Sometimes She Is Killed As A , And If She Manages To See The Light Of Day, She Is Killed As An Infant, Which Makes Up The Highly Skewed Child Sex Ratio Where For Every 1000 Boys In India, There Are Only 908 Girls. In Such A Scenario, It Is But Obvious That For Myriad Reasons, Many Girls Across The Country Are Forced To Drop Out Of School.

From Wrestling To Business, The World Has Been  By Exceptional Women Leaders In Fields That Were Until Recently Completely Dominated By Men.
