It isn’t that easy to be a girl in India. You have to deal with quite judgemental society every day that reminds you the measure of your freedom as set by them. There are constant discussions on body shaming, racism for the color of your skin and what not. These incidents are a part of our day to day life even after which girls are proving their potential in every possible field and it’s high time our surroundings strictly needs to forbid using such statements.
