आज ऑफिशियल रूप से #अंतरराष्ट्रीयमहिलादिवस है।पर मुझे बचपन से सिखाया गया है कि जो जननी है ,जो जन्म देने की क्षमता रखती है उनका दिन तो रोज़ मनाया जाना चाहिए। यदि परिवार वाले ये सीख अपने बच्चों को, ख़ासकर बेटों को घरों में दें तो महिला दिवस symbolic नहीं बल्कि एक वास्तविकता होगी!🙏 pic.twitter.com/luH36KszLA
