When Braveheart Major Sukhwinder Jeet Singh Randhawa KC gave his all fighting terrorists in Anantnag in 1997, his young wife, holding her baby in her arms, walked a path that no Veer Nari had until then...

Mrs Ravinder Randhawa went to then AWWA President Dr Ranjana Malik and said she wants to continue her husbands legacy of service to the nation....

Then Army Chief Gen @Vedmalik1 saw her determination and took it up with the government to allow Widows of Soldiers to try earning the uniform

Lt Col Ravinder Randhawa was selected and served 24 years in Olive Green. Yesterday, while meeting President of India @rashtrapatibhvn, she proudly wore her Braveheart husband's medals as well as her own

Operation Sindoor is a tribute to all Brave Women of India🫡 🇮🇳

Never forget #FreedomIsNotFree 🇮🇳

What an honour it has been to be able to learn from and be guided by the women that redefine the epitome of strength. Lt Col RJ Randhawa, first VeeNari to join the Army was one of the brave women who met with the President of the largest democracy in the world, India!

[President of India @rashtrapatibhvn]

A group of Veer Naris and widows of fallen soldiers called on President Droupadi Murmu at Rashtrapati Bhavan. This interaction was organised by the Army Women’s Welfare Association.

Not all men but enough men
Not all men but ALL women
It is always what she was wearing and never what he did
She left the house at night. She fought back. She spoke up. She dared to be alive.
Not all men but all men did nothing to stop it. #WeWantJustice

One more name on the war memorial
One more family that will never be the same
When will we as Indians understand that freedom is NEVER free.
We are the Cost Of War.
But we will pay this cost at every turn.
Because we will give everything for this land.

In todays news, Wife of a Kirti Chakra Awardee was denied the Fastag exempted pass. She applied under Rule 11 criteria XXV(25) granting exemption to Chakra series awardees if they can provide valid documents.
Why was this exemption denied to the next of kin of a KC awardee?

Unfortunately, as we know a lot of these awardees are lost in the line of duty and it is rather rare for them to be able to avail such exemptions for themselves. So, rightfully they are transferred to the next of kin where appropriate.

All other exemptions are transferred to the next of kin of an awardee of the Chakra series; eg. Cash Awards given by respective state gov., Railway pass, Concession Certificate by Air India and so on.

Although this individual applied through appropriate channels and provided valid documents, she was denied and marked as not approaved without providing any valid reasoning for such denial.

@nitin_gadkari sir, I would like to implore you to please look into this. I seek for answers for this denial without just cause.

France became the FIRST country to enshrine abortion rights into their constitution!!
Reproductive rights are healthcare rights!
My body has to be my choice and not be governed by religious or personal sentiments of a stranger!
What has happened in USA over the past couple of months has proven the need for proactive action.
Hats off to France 🇫🇷 for taking a bold step into the future!!!
