MyGov celebrates the spirit of womanhood on the day of International Women’s Day, 8th March 2016. Women in India have significantly contributed in nation building. They are the mothers who nurture children and ensure that the future of our country is bright. They are the homemakers who balance not just their family, but an entire nation on their shoulders. They work hard to strike gold for Indian economy and carve niche in a wide range of professional fields. They are top-level employers who brainstorm and formulate policies for not just their companies, but for the state as well. They are the social-workers who have remarkably contributed in achieving parity in every possible way.

MyGov acknowledges the contribution of women in various activities conducted so far, namely:

  1. Ms. Priya Sharma from Delhi designed Logo for Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana was designed by Ms. Priya Sharma, Delhi
  2. Ms. Bhagyasri Seth from Gujarat crafted Tagline for Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan
  3. Ms. Vipitha Devi from Kerala crafted Tagline for National Education Policy
  4. Suggestions by Ms. Aditi Sarkar, Ms. Gunjan Gupta, Ms. Amiya Samantaray and Ms. Rajlakshmi Borthakur were recognized by ‘Innovate for India’ Challenge
  5. Ms. Rajni Setia, Ms. Joyitri Sarkar, Ms. G. Almelu agai, Ms. Nishita Chandak, Ms. Priyanka Malhotra and Ms. Tuhina Chatterjee, among others are the volunteers who have steadfastly assisted MyGov since its launch.
  6. Ms. Richa Abhyankar from Pune, Maharashtra, Deeksha Katyal, Delhi among others are notable commenter’s on MyGov.
  7. Ms. Harshada Patil from Karnataka was one of the winners of the Tagline Contest organised by the Petroleum Conservation Research Association (PCRA)
  8. Ms. Mangla Jothi Mangalam Pillia, leader of one of the top 5 teams shortlisted for the PMO Mobile app contest is appreciated for her efforts

Hon. Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is propelling the cause of women empowerment, by creating opportunities for the in all the socio-economical activities. He mentioned few women on his monthly radio show ‘Mann Ki Baat’ namely, Garima Gupta from Uttar Pradesh, Suchitra Raghavachari from Tamil Nadu among others.

India women have made us proud every single day. We look forward to appreciate more and more women for their active participation on MyGov.

    Many congratulations to all those who have participated with your ideas and specially for those whose views have been recognised. Greater participation of women in administration, governance & in leadership roles is the need of the hour. It is almost always "the road less travelled" for most working professionals, but the reward for perseverance & hard work make the effort worth it. The MyGov portal has been an enabler for getting women’s views across, thank you.

    Currently, we are struggling with air/water pollution.

    The silencers of many two wheelers are found in inclined position. Then, any smoke ejected out of this silencer thrust upon the face of any succeeding traveler. I wonder, Environment/health bodies could do something.

    The next dangerous menace is going to be noise pollution.
    So motorbikes (e.g. Enfield) are promoted (attract youth)for their noise nuisance.
    So, it is time for government to start planning to face/decimate this menace.

    Using a caste-specific word/title invite criminal proceedings, which is often misused to settle scores.

    However, such a provision is desired for the comments/teaser aimed to mock a rape victim or her family members.

    PM sir I think u should reconsider Manila bill because i think they don’t have any need of reservation. They all know how to achieve their goal through hard work… Sir we really want equality….not reservation

    This is the right step to go forward and be global. Women should be treated as equal to Men in all respects and their rights should be respected as other male citizens. However, they are also equally responsible for their actions and should be liable for any consequences arising out of their behaviours and actions. They are free to take independent decisions in their lives, but have to exercise caution as they are more susceptible to emotions and are physically weaker compared to men.

    I have written a small poem for IWD, hope you like it!

    Girls,
    Women!
    Aren’t a mere word.
    They are reason for the existence.
    They are the God’s True particle.
    Treat her equal, as she truly deserves.

    . The End.

    Dear Dwivedi Sir,
    I wish all the women a very Happy International Women’s Day, which is a great global celebration.
    On similar concept I would like to propose an idea, I think which can make an global impact of our great Indian culture.
    >Idea is on coming Dasara, India should celebrate KUMARIKA POOJA on Global Level by Inviting KUMARI’S from all the countries, including all religions, race & creed, and WORSHIP THEM. Also have cultural presentations in front of them.
