From silence to voice, from exclusion to dignity, Babasaheb' legacy is our power.

We wholeheartedly commend the efforts of the District Collector, and the DWE of Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan, to reprint over 4000 copies of our legal primer - ‘Karyasthal Par Mahilaon Ka Yaun Utpeedan’ - in the spirit of ensuring safe workplaces for all women.

Holi—a festival of colors, joy, & togetherness! But amidst the celebrations, let’s not overlook the importance of consent. Check out our postcards at pldindia.org/postcards for meaningful conversations on boundaries and respect. Let’s make this Holi truly vibrant for everyone!

Focus of law on prosecution to the neglect of victim support and rehabilitation does not serve ends of justice

Santosh Sharma, social worker, Nirantar Trust: We must stop looking for solutions for such violence in law. There are many laws against rape. But, that doesn't stop it from happening. It is time to take a step back and introspect on the role we can play to stop witch-hunting.

This World Day of Social Justice, we draw focus to “Witch-hunting”. Our research indicates it is the patriarchal structure rather than a belief system, that is perpetuating violence against women. Read our research: academia.edu/15475888/Contem…

The Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013 recognised rape and crime against women as a societal issue. Let’s revisit the changes brought by it in the existing legal landscape on gender based sexual violence in India.

This republic day, we pledge ourselves to uphold the values of democracy. Core to these values is the right to equality. This right has provided a level-playing field for women in exercising their right to equality of opportunity.

A revolutionary who is yet to be given her due place in Indian history, Fatima Sheikh worked alongside the Phules to spread education among the oppressed communities in a society riddled with caste hegemony and patriarchy.
Tributes on her birth anniversary.

This National Youth Day (Jan 12), let’s renew our commitment to advancing child rights. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, ratified by India in 1992, provides a key framework to enable this.

On the birth anniversaries of Savitribai Phule & Fatima Sheikh, we honor the feminist solidarity & friendship that empowered their shared fight for education & equality. Together, they stood against caste oppression, patriarchal norms, & social injustice.
