“‘Khel Rangala Paithanicha’ and the women’s get-together was held in Pashan. We come to know about the problems of women from our area through such events. We can then solve them. Moreover, a forum is made available to them. All my sisters from Pashan responded enthusiastically to the programme. I am henceforth committed to implement such initiatives.”
