Aiming at gender balance and women empowerment, the said forum has so far inspired thousands of elite Indian women to spread awareness about accelerating the socio-cultural independence of women by procuring emotional, intellectual and financial growth of them- who are embodiment of Nature herself and who joyfully accept pains in becoming instrumental for keeping the human life pulsating on this planet.
