The silence around menopause in India needs to break. Poonam Muttreja (@Letstransform), Executive director, @PopFoundIndia and Dr Priya Nanda, Member WHO Human Reproduction Programme’s Scientific and Technical Advisory Group write in @NewIndianXpress newindianexpress.com/xplore/…

Falling fertility rate can’t be tackled through financial incentives alone. India needs to strengthen childcare system, reproductive & maternal healthcare, workplace flexibility & more male participation in childcar, writes @seemasachdeva15 in #SpectrumTribune @Letstransform @SrinivasGoli1 tribuneindia.com/news/in-dep…

As Andhra Pradesh announces a questionable incentive to go in for larger families, a debate rages worldwide on the likely impact of the falling fertility rate, writes @seemasachdeva15 in #SpectrumTheTribune tribuneindia.com/news/in-dep…

As Audio Tape Reveals Giribala Son had a Drug Addiction, not Twisha "Giribala had no business doing press conference" says Ex CJI of Madras HC & @YashoAzad @LetsTransform & Twisha's Cousin Naina weigh in calling for Giribala's Bail to be cancelled. In full youtube.com/watch?v=xSrltt8W…

If thought is to be encapsulated, how can it be expressed—Twisha is gone, but her story lives on in those who have endured, those who have survived, and those seen around us. Watch as the panelists weigh in with their perspectives. #TTP @PreetiChoudhry @Letstransform @Tara_Deshpande @cashewcutlet, Lalitha Kumaramangalam (Former Chairperson, NCW)

"Our families are often our biggest danger. Our mental attitudes have not yet changed, and we rarely hold the system accountable—it remains mostly in words. But where do we put it into action?"- Lalitha Kumaramangalam (Former Chairperson, NCW) Sex ratios are a strong indicator that India not only has son preference but also daughter aversion. Why do we eliminate daughters even before they are born or after birth, and then continue to kill them later through dowry, family discord, and violence?- @Letstransform #TTP #DowryDeath @PreetiChoudhry

Population Push: Chandrababu Naidu Incentivises Bigger Families In Andhra Pradesh On the panel with @AnushaSoni23: @Rachnareddy4bjp, Deepak Reddy Gunapati, @Letstransform

#Exclusive: Poonam Muttreja, Executive Director of the Population Foundation of India (PFI), has spent over three decades at the intersection of population, public health, and gender. She advocates shifting from population control to rights-based, informed choice for women across India. 👉🏼 Policies Built Without People Muttreja argues programs fail by assuming women's full autonomy, ignoring family dynamics, social norms, and economic dependence. 'A program may assume a woman can decide when to seek care or use contraception,' she says, 'but those decisions are shaped by family dynamics, social norms, and economic dependence.' PFI's goal is to 'bring public into public health,' ensuring communities shape services. 👉🏼 Stories, Research, and Ground-Level Action PFI works across policy, societal, and individual levels, anchored by research. Its transmedia show 'Main Kuch Bhi Kar Sakti Hoon' reached millions, showing storytelling shifts gender norms where policies cannot. Muttreja distinguishes agency (ability to choose) from empowerment (ability to act). PFI's motto: 'Desh badlega jab mard badlega.' 👉🏼 The Work That Remains Despite challenges, Muttreja stays hopeful: 'Even in difficult environments, we can speak, challenge, and engage.' 👉🏼 The Logical Indian's Perspective Muttreja's work reminds us real public health is not measured in numbers alone, but in whether women have genuine control over their lives. Policies ignoring communities fail. Do India's public health policies reflect community realities? #PublicHealth #GenderEquality #WomensRights #nonprofitorganization #PoonamMuttreja

Is India really overpopulated or have we been told the wrong story? @Letstransform, Executive Director @PopFoundIndia joins @Broacha_Cyrus to unpack one of the biggest myths in Indian public discourse: that “too many people” are the root of all problems 🔊omny.fm/shows/cyrus-says/ind…

Father kills daughter over Panchayat Election The problem in India is that women have very low status. I understand that population control was necessary at a time when poverty was at unprecedented levels and malnutrition was a huge issue. However, malnutrition continues to be a problem in Maharashtra even today...: @Tara_Deshpande We need to put solutions in place, along with strict behavioural and social norms that absolutely cannot violate young girls or women: @Letstransform #5Live @Sonal_MK

Father kills daughter over Panchayat Election If we look at this through the lens of hunger for power, it is important to recognise how policy itself shapes that hunger. When eligibility to contest elections is linked to a two-child norm, political ambition becomes entangled with family size: @Letstransform #5Live @Sonal_MK

#Budget2026 | Dr Poonam Muttreja and Dr Sujatha Rao criticise the latest Union Budget's allocations for the health sector. Both experts call for a significant shift in political priorities to address India's catastrophic health challenges and ensure basic healthcare for all citizens. #UnionBudget2026 #5Live | @Sonal_MK @Letstransform

#Budget2026 | Dr Poonam Muttreja, Executive Director of Population Foundation of India, says 'a 6% increase in the national health budget will probably offset the inflation' but argues that health and women's reproductive rights are not being prioritized. She describes the marginal increases as 'tokenism' and points to a 40% underutilization of funds as a sign of poor governance. #UnionBudget2026 #5Live | @Sonal_MK @Letstransform

A Budget that fails to strengthen women’s health systems will ultimately undermine both #genderequality and India’s broader development ambitions. Poonam Muttreja (@Letstransform) reminds us that #ViksitBharat needs more than numbers deccanherald.com/opinion/uni…

The panel emphasised moving beyond consultation to real citizen agency, through rights, local platforms, and partnerships that make accountability work on ground. w/ Poonam Muttreja, Mira Chatterjee, @prashanthns, Amarjeet Sinha & Manoj Jhalani ▶️ Watch: bit.ly/LCClaunch
