“Science is not for girls” is a stereotype long overdue for abolition.

Through #VigyanJyoti, schoolgirls are discovering laboratories, mentors and futures shaped by science.

Curiosity today. Scientists tomorrow.

Stereotypes often try to define women's role in science!

Reality? Women across India are breaking the stereotypes, leading research, innovation and discovery.

Through multiple initiatives, @IndiaDST is supporting women at every stage of the scientific journey.

A thread. 🧵

@ConsumerVoiceIn @consaff @jagograhakjago @abhirajbhal @varunkhaitan No end to it. On top of it they seem to have kidnapped my geyser and asked for ransom to return it as is. Job closed without resolution and asking for extra money to put my geyser back. No warranty provided.
