Part two in the series is out and it's a wrap!

[Feminism in India @FeminismInIndia]

While we talk of building back better after the pandemic, there is a need to recognise not just the differences between how men and women commute but also to address the deep seated inequalities that women face.

In the aftermath of the first wave of the pandemic, buses and trains were the last to be made functional. Even before the pandemic, studies found that the cost of public transport was prohibitive for women.

If you write about Delhi, you write about India. And if I want to write about Hyderabad, I need to find a reason for it!

Kind of confused about what country my city belongs to in academia! 😅

@kawin_kumaran Haha gosh I miss people randomly switching to Tamil around me!

I think I want to be on twitter. Hello!

#Gender | Urban transport planning in Indian cities is not gender-sensitive. This needs to change if we want women to be independent and empowered.

#Gender | Freedom of movement, mobility rights, or the right to travel is a basic human right, as declared in the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The question is then, why are women in India not as mobile as men? @AilaBandagi writes: https://t.co/Q1IGtHnXcr
