New Delhi: Maayaa Sanitary Pad was launched by Naari Shakti Ko Pranam organization on 28th May as an employment opportunity especially for covid effected females by Hema Malini Member Parliament in the capacity of Chief Guest of the day.
“The lack of education and knowledge about menstrual hygiene is because of the illiteracy, old traditions, old culture, old myths, lack of facilities at home and educational centers, introvert students, parents and teachers, lack of cooperation which do exists even now in underdeveloped and developing nations,” said Dr. Sandeep Marwah President of Marwah Studios in a webinar organized by Ashwani Choudhary of Brij Bhoomi Foundation on International Menstrual Hygiene Day.
“We have been propagating about the subject without fail as lack of knowledge has led to deaths and many serious ailments in women. Radio Noida 107.4Fm, Radio Raipur and MSTV continuously talking about this problem to cover all sort of audience all over India.
