She said the battles may differ but the root cause is the same.
“Women are not treated equally across the world today and that in every country they are fighting for equal representation of women in their own way. In the US, they are talking about pay parity and equal roles for women in workplaces,” Ashwiny told media.
She added, “Socially backward countries have issues of malnutrition, they talk about women not taking care of their health. In Africa, women have to walk long distances to collect water and because of that their health is deteriorating and they are falling ill.”
