Nothing is 'impure' about periods. This Durga Puja, don't let bleeding deprive your daughters of Maa's darshan, says the author to all mothers out there. 

It is always most difficult to name and shame someone who is well-known to you: in a very personal post, Sonia Chatterjee writes about the sexual harassment she had faced as a child from a family friend.

A hard-hitting poem that takes us through the life of an ordinary Indian girl. All her life silenced by the shaming and finger-pointing. But no longer silent.

"Why do the immoral survive?" asks the author, adding, "It is time to rally around and bring decency back into society, come hell or high water."

As we celebrate The International Day Of The Girl Child, the author hopes for a world where men aren’t predators and little girls are made to feel warm and safe.
