A Reflection of Women's Empowerment, a Reflection of the Struggle for Independence

'If mothers do not come along, I will not be able to liberate the country even after trying for a hundred years.' - Mahatma Mandhi “Who gives head by donating body's blood. Which kisses the noose of Fossi without giving dust to the country. We bow to such immortal women a hundred times.” Women have been involved in India's freedom struggle. The main beginning of the movement for special contribution to independence begins in 1857 in the house of Sheti Lakshmibai. In slave India, a woman queen had lit this fire and she was martyred while fighting with immense courage and bravery. It was here that the spirit of Britain was shaken and Indians were inspired to rise against the British.
