On the occasion of International Women's Day, hundreds of female volunteers of the National Service Scheme (NSS) from various schools across Agartala took part in women rights awareness procession.
The procession started from Umakanta School premises after a brief discussion on the importance of International Women's Day in the struggle towards human, social and economic rights to women.
The theme for this year's International Women's Day is "Choose to Challenge" and it indicates that a "challenged world is an alert world and from challenge comes change".
The program was organized by Tripura state NSS cell of Youth Affairs and Sports Department of the government of Tripura in collaboration with 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao Yojana' under Social Welfare and Social Education Department, Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, Sports Authority of India, Fit India Movement, and Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan.
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
