Krishnapriya bought 14 rolls of billing paper and wrote on each page and wrote the 434-metre-long letter in 12 hours.

The way towards being an empowered elder sister starts with being an empowered woman.

If only there were no gender discrimination, an elder sister would have rightfully stepped into the shoes of her father, wrapped around her mother’s empowering saree and become a feminist leader with power and compassion. And so would an elder brother without any gender barrier.

Don’t let your fight over remote turn ugly enough to pull each other down on the basis of gender or social stereotypes and give the worst memories of life. Understand each others’ frustrations and resolve the difference that patriarchy has created between you. 

If a brother will be protected from misfortunes and death through Bhai Dooj, what about the sister? Why is there no one to pray for her immortality?
