If anybody asks me whom do you consider as a superhero in a real life? Well, then my answer would be a “Woman”. I’m not just talking about myself or ladies closely related to me. Here, I’m considering every woman who is right out there taking care of their families, kids, and themselves.
During her entire life, a woman needs to make a lot of adjustments and compromises. Still, she never breaks and helps every person related to her wholeheartedly. If we look back, there was a time when women were not allowed to fulfill their dreams, though the traces are still found in our society.But, now if you look at the current stats, you will find that women are doing a great job in every sector. For instance, Manushi Chhillar who won the Miss World pageant and Mary Kom the champion boxer of India. And as we are going to celebrate International Women’s Day on 8th March 2018, here we have listed some powerful and amazing women who have made India proud at the global level.
