What could be more thrilling than flying in a fighter jet while protecting the skies of the motherland?
Well, this Women’s Day, we bring you the stories and valor of some of the bravest women in the modern era who never settled for anything less than free skies.
India was one of the earliest countries in the world to induct women into the Air Force.
While women in several other countries were fighting for equal voting rights, women in India were training shoulder to shoulder with men in the Indian Armed forces.
You must have heard about Gunjan Saxena and Sreevidya Rajan who proved their mettle on the battlefield in the Kargil war of 1999.
So today, we are going to talk about a few such women whose stories have not gotten much recognition from today’s generation despite being so motivational.
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
