International Women’s Day brought a surge of inspiration to New Delhi’s Vigyan Bhawan with the Bharatiya ‘Nari se Narayani’ two-day national women’s thinkers’ conference. Key attendees included BJP MPs Sandhya Verma, Anandmurti Guruma, Sumitra Balmiki, Kavita Patidar, Maya Naroliya, and revered saints like Yogini Mukti Nath, Mahamandaleshwar Swami Maitri Giri, Sadhvi Anadi Saraswati, Sadhvi Sunita Shastri, and Mridula Pradhan.
The forum tackled women’s empowerment head-on, alongside West Bengal concerns. In her IANS interview, Mrs. Pradhan, spouse of Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, congratulated all and spotlighted the event’s essence. ‘Under the Indian Scholars’ Council banner, it’s showcasing trailblazing women. Regular such gatherings are essential to motivate and mainstream women. With inherent power, self-assurance is the key to their rise.’
Mahamandaleshwar Swami Maitri Giri lauded the thoughtful ‘Mata Sangam’ for its depth. ‘Feminine Shakti has historically triumphed in divine trials,’ he asserted.
Sadhvi Anadi Saraswati emphasized women’s integral place in India’s value-driven society. ‘This conclave explores versatile roles, from spiritual paths to household duties.’
Sadhvi Sunita Shastri invoked scriptural reverence for motherly force, vital for instilling discipline. ‘We must ponder its modern dilution,’ she said.
Overall, the conference galvanized a vision of empowered womanhood, rooted in tradition yet geared toward contemporary leadership.
