Women’s Day

With the concept of Mrs. Meena Atul Shitole, a paper-bag called “Aarambh” has been made by using the “sanitary napkins” used during menstruation. This project has been realised through the “Sakhi Mahila Bachat Gat”. It is anticipated that once these bags will be used to discard used sanitary napkins, the taboo associated with it will also be rid of forever. This commendable activity was started by “Mrs. Sunetra Ajit Pawar” today on Women’s Day. Mrs. Aarti Rao, Mrs. Ashwini Darekar and some other women were also present at the occasion. This has given the women of the self-help groups a new source of income. Moreover, this will also prevent the harmful effects of handling used sanitary napkins on the health of the waste pickers.
