When women did not get their rights in America, they raised their voice by demonstrating on the streets. Women are sensitive, not weak. They have the power to take care of their home, family and job.

Meanwhile, a health check camp was also organised at the school where more than 200 women were examined.

First Lady of Panchkula Anju Goyal, school MD Kusum Kumar Gupta, director Sharda Gupta, Principal Ritu Arora and former Principal Simmi Razdan were among those present.
