A special cover was released on 8th March 2019 at Patiala to celebrate International Women's Day.
Pakeezah is a social health initiative of District Administration
Patiala in collaboration with Bharat Petroleum to make the girls and
women of Patiala aware about healthy Menstrual practices and providing
low-cost sanitary pads. The project plays a subtle role in building
social capital and social mobilization at grass-root level by providing
an interactive platform where young adolescents of both genders can come
together and talk about mensuration which has been considered a
forbidden thing in traditional Indian society. Pakeezah as the name
indicates has all pure intentions to inspire women to accept mensuration
as a natural part of them and more aware about it scientifically.
District administration Patiala is releasing this special cover on the
occasion of International Women's Day.
