Women On The Lead: True Warriors In The Fight Against Corona virus

It is the strength and expertise that makes a woman more powerful face the difficulty. Whether it is a struggle in the front, a domestic issue or a health crisis, every woman has the strength and capability to deal with the situation. It needs a spark and opportunity. Even in the 21st-century, women have to face issues regarding inequality, biased attitude, employment, and education. Every day men forget that women are an essential section of society. They have to learn that this fact cannot be denied by any means says Karthikeya Rupakula.

At present, every country is struggling with Coronavirus infection, its seriousness, rising deaths and lack of vaccine. But the female gender stands more robust and poignant in the frontline. In every part of the world women and men, are fighting hard with their capabilities and skills to fight this pandemic situation. But a major role is played by the women. They have emerged as the hero in this bio war-like situation that is brought in the world from the city of Wuhan in China.

Karthikeya says that women need just an inclusion and an opportunity. Women have the spirit and determination to find a better solution. Sooner or later the pre-occupied state of mind of the egocentric men will understand the need and place of women in their lives and society. It is a truth that educated women can bring huge changes in a family than any men can do. But the question remains the same way she has to prove her worth now and then? Just because she has to convince others and establish her identity.  

Recently, India’s Women Football team captain Bala Devi joined hands with AFC in an awareness campaign against the Coronavirus pandemic. She is urging everyone to stay at home and practice social distancing as it is the only available means to deal with this deadly disease.

These women are operating tirelessly at the forefront to manage every challenge. While working round the clock, they want to ensure the stable functioning of everything.  and give their best in administration, diagnosis, prevention, and cure.
