Every year 24th January is celebrated as National Girl Child Day in India. This day is celebrated with the aim of making girls aware of their rights and giving them respect in the society along with equal opportunities for development. Gender discrimination is not a new thing in India, but has been going on for centuries. Let us know when and why the celebration of National Girl Child Day started.
Indira Gandhi took oath as the woman Prime Minister on 24 January 1966, hence 24 January is celebrated as National Girl Child Day in India. Celebrating National Girl Child Day in India was started in the year 2008 by the Ministry of Women Welfare and Child Development because for the first time in the history of India, a woman had become the Prime Minister of the country, which was a step towards women empowerment. There was a revolutionary change.
She was the first woman Prime Minister of the country. This day was chosen every year to remember the achievement of the country's daughter reaching this position.
