Thousands of women farmers held protest marches and delivered speeches at the Singhu, Tikri and Ghazipur protest sites at Delhi's borders on International Women's Day.
Noting that women contribute significantly to the country's farming sector, the organisers have laid out elaborate plans to let women farmers manage the stage, arrange food and security and share tales of their struggles on the occasion.
Thousands of farmers, mostly from Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh, have been camping at the Delhi border points for over 100 days, demanding the repeal of farm laws and a legal guarantee on the minimum support price for their crops.
The Labor Origins of, Women's History Month:, Explained.
Though women should be celebrated
every day, March has been designated
National Women’s History Month.
Here's how March came to be
known as Women’s History Month.
Women’s History Month was birthed after
garment workers in New York City held a
massive protest on March 8, 1857.
The strike was repeated on the same date in
1908 and throughout the year, which led to March 8
being named International Women’s Day.
In 1978, activist Molly Murphy
MacGregor instituted a local
“women's history week”
in Sonoma, California.
It was recognized nationally
on a year-to-year basis in 1980 by
President Jimmy Carter.
By 1986, 14 states recognized March as Women’s
History Month, as a result of the hard work of
The National Women's History Project.
A year later, in 1987, the entire nation began celebrating National Women's Day in March

In the heart of Uttar Pradesh's Mainpuri, the stronghold of the Samajwadi Party, the party's cadre is rallying behind their local MP and party stalwart, Dimple Yadav, with an ambitious call – to see her as the next Prime Minister of India. As the region gears up for polling on May 7, the voices on the ground paint a picture of disillusionment with the incumbent BJP government, which they believe has failed to live up to its promises. The party workers allege that the ruling dispensation has neglected the needs and aspirations of the people, and they see Dimple Yadav as a beacon of hope – a leader who understands the grassroots issues and can steer the nation towards progress. With fervent support from the party's base, the Samajwadi Party is gearing up for a fierce battle, aiming to regain its foothold in the state and potentially propel Dimple Yadav to the national stage.
