The Delhi Commission for Women held an awards ceremony on International Women’s Day to honour women from across various fields, including the all-women Air India crew who flew on the longest flight, ISRO scientists, and 80-year-old Mohinder Kaur who is taking part in the ongoing farmers’ protest, among others.
Speaking at the event, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said: “We often believe that extraordinary people take up extraordinary work. However, it is the ordinary citizen who takes up the initiative who do extraordinary work. The latter is often ignored by the people but the DCW has taken up the responsibility of highlighting their work.”
