“I believe in the power of the voice of women”.

“I raise up my voice - not so I can shout, but so that those without a

voice can be heard ……… We cannot succeed when half of us are

held back”………… And that sentiment precisely outlines the

basis of new age women which was voiced by the youngest Nobel

Laureate Malala Yousafzai , the pride of women race. Be bold for

change is her real renaissance. She, a woman, has already

prepared herself to make her contribution to the world of the future.

In the past she has produced her great culture, and in the present

age she has an equally significant yet unique contribution to make

to the socio, economic culture of the New World which is emerging

from the phoenix of the past wreckage. This is a momentous period

of her history pregnant with precious and luminous possibilities

which will further grow in vigour and creative power. April issue of

“Sanginee“ is the celebration of womanhood. From 8th March we

march forward to sing the songs of femininity ………… culmination

of maternity and womanhood as an instinct.

Kudos to the editorial board for presenting a bouquet of creative

writing and recreating the social activities of Nalco Mahila Samiti,

be it Damonjodi, Angul or Bhubaneswar and thanks to the writers

for their commendable creativity.

I believe the members of Nalco Mahila Samiti as well as the

readers will be proactive in social activities to improvise the social

condition, especially of those who are down trodden and are in the

grass root level. Thanks to Nalco officials but for whom the mighty

flow of literature in the form of Sanginee would not have been

possible. It was not possible to extent our helping hands to the

needy without the support of Nalco with whom Nalco Mahila Samiti

works in tandem.

“Love is the only reality and it is not a mere sentiment. It is the

ultimate truth that lies at the heart of creation”, aptly quoted by

Rabindranath Tagore. We dedicate this issue of Sanginee to the

real lovers, the creators and the restorers of the world.

We wish you Happy Vishu, Naba Barsha, Nua Barasa, Vaisakhi,

Paila Baisakh, Rangali Bihu, Good Friday, Mahaveer Jayanti,

Budhha Purnima and many more good days.

MegYe mebosMeI am glad to know that Nalco Mahila Samiti is bringing out the 2nd issue of ‘SANGINEE’ commemorating the celebration of ‘International Women’s Day’ this year.

It is said, woman is God’s most beautiful creation. Because, she has the ability of procreation, an amazing gift of nature, so pure & divine. Why then we are considered weaker sex & remain vulnerable to onslaught of gender bias & discrimination ? Somewhere we are also responsible for not being able to create a distinct & respectable identity for ourselves in the society. That would happen only when you respect yourself and take pride in being a woman. Respecting means defining your own worth as a human being, believing and having confidence in yourself.

I feel extremely fortunate of being a daughter. Being a mother is simply divine for me. As a wife, I have celebrated womanhood. But beyond this I would be happy & have a sense of fulfillment only when my existence is recognized & respected.

I wish & hope, this issue of Sanginee will enlighten its readers the virtue of womanhood and the pride & self-esteem associated with it.

All the best.

(Manasi Samal)Member, Nalco Mahila Samiti

I am delighted to learn that the second issue of ‘Sanginee’ a quarterly magazine is heing published.

This coincides with the recently concluded International Women’s Day on March 8th with a campaign theme, ‘Be bold for change’.

To achieve the expected change in the years to come I urge my friends to be bold and spread this message to all acquaintances.

I wish our Nalco Mahila Samiti a grand success.

(Gaythri Balasubramanyam)Member, Nalco Mahila Samiti

The divine light which you carry within your soul is inherited from God because you are His daughter. Part of the light which makes you so magnificent is the blessing of womanhood.

There is no denying the fact that women in India have made a considerable progress in almost seven decades of Independence, but they still have to struggle against many handicaps and social evils in a patriarchal world. Many evil and masculine forces still prevail in the modern Indian society that resists the forward march of its women folk.

Swami Vivekananda, one of the greatest sons of India, quoted “There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of women is improved, it is not possible for a bird to fly on only one wing. Therefore, the inclusion of Women Empowerment as one of the prime goals in the e ight Mi l lennium Development Goals underscores the relevance of this fact. Thus, in order to achieve the status of a developed country India needs to transform its colossal women force into an effective human resource and this is possible only through the empowerment of women,

Empowering women to participate fully in economic life across all sectors is essential to b u i l d s t ro n g e r e c o n o m i e s , a c h i e v e internationally agreed goals for development and sustainability and improve the quality of life for women, men, families and communities.

What is women empowerment ?

Women empowerment means emancipation of women from the vicious grips of social, economical, political, caste and gender-based discrimination. It means granting women the freedom to make free choices.Women empowerment does not mean deriving women rather it means replacing patriarchy with parity. There are various facets of women empowerment, such as Human Rights or individual rights: A woman is a being with senses, imagination and thoughts: she should be able to express them freely, individual empowerment means to have the self-confidence, to articulate and assert the power to negotiate and decide.

A Society Cannot Grow if Half of This is Held Back

Ritu Kumar

Meena Bhati was born in a Rajput family living in the Chand village of Pali district, Rajasthan.

In India, the Rajput community does not believe in educating a girl child. Many families do not even wish to bring a girl child to this world as she is considered as a liability. Meena grew up in a society where women were treated with inequality.

Meena was lucky that her parents gave her opportunity to study till class 10. She pleaded her parents to allow her to continue her education but was told to pay attention to household work and be ready for marriage. Very soon she was forced to get married against her wish.

Meena did not know that there was another chance waiting for her. Instead of risking her life with an adolescent pregnancy or being forced to work at home she was re-enrolled in school. Although their parents disapproved, Meena’s husband stood by her side and supported her. She now holds a bachelor degree in education and is taking post graduate courses in Hindi and rural development.

Meena joined ‘Educate Girls’ 6 years ago and rose through the ranks as a field communication manager. She identifies school girls and gives them an opportunity to educate themselves to realize their potential. It is important to take a holistic approach to educate and mobilize communities to realize to take a stand against gender disparity.

The Sun’s weeping, all scarlet and red,The sky’s full of his thousand tearstainsClosing the day’s curtains,lifting the duskened ones,arrives the impertinent friendwith greetings, none.

Sweeping away the hustleand setting into the town’s bustle,the boastful moon, beauty unrestrained,has arrived, cutting deep into the blackness.Moon is a friend; friend with a dozen benefits.and none behooving at all.Moon decorates the sky nowwith his twinkling partners spreaded all over.He shines in borrowed lightand basks in stolen limelight.Moon adorns the night-skyand the Sun’s still weeping.But tears won’t be visible now,when moon shines in all his glory.

The Impertinent FriendshipSimran Sahoo

Waiting for pregnant clouds, and wet roads;sultry afternoons, the size of doom,are we? The sun’s losing his blistered head,running around on his hands and feet.Winter is partial and so he complains,But when you’re king, you’re always right.On long nights and short daysthe Sun grows impatient and old.But when Summer’s here,the king shall die, and another shall reign.the moon shall leave, with his ghosts and craters.

These cruelties never end.These indifferences live on,the fountain head of a million pleasures.This war shall never end.between calm and furyuntil that day the Sun gets wearyand takes with him,all his rebellious children.
