International Women's Day Celebration

                 

                     We are all know that 8 March is "INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY." On this day the whole world celebrates this day.Whay we celebrates international women's day on 8th march? The seed of the day was planted in 1908 when 15,000 women marched through New York City demanding shorter working hours, higher pay and the right to vote. On that day, the Socialist Party of America announced the first National Women's Day a year later.The idea to internationalize the day came from a woman named Clara Zatkin.Clara did not set a date for International Women's Day. The day was not formally observed until 1917, when war time  Russian women's strikes demanded 'food and peace'.A four-day women's strike in Russia led to the abdication of the Czar and an interim government to grant women the right to vote.Julian calendar was used in Russia at that time. February 23 was a Sunday in the Julian calendar when the women's strike began. It was March 8 in the Gregorian calendar. So it is celebrated on 8 March.

                       Similarly, International Women's Day celebration was organized at R.R. Monpara Arts College on 15 March, 2023 due to Dhuleti holiday and another problem.Three women dignitaries and the speaker, ALPA MA'AM PONDA, MEGHA MA'AM TRIVEDI and ARCHANA MA'AM GOHIL were present respecting their valuable time and our invitation.The program was started by the student giving bouquet to the guest.
