The primary purpose of organizing events like International Women's Day is not only to make women aware not only. Instead, they have to be motivated to come forward for the advancement of society.

The first International Women's Day was first celebrated in the United States on February 28, 1909, at the call of the Socialist Party.

It was a social movement whose main aim was to demand women the same rights as men and to give them rights like voting rights.

This was the time when men underestimated women, and in no country did women have the right to vote.

The impact of this movement for women's rights awakening was seen in many countries of the world when in Soviet Russia also women started a movement over the demands of bread and clothes.

According to the Julian calendar, the historic women's movement began on February 28. According to the Gregorian calendar, it was March 8, which is why international women's day is celebrated on March 8, not on February 28.

March 8 marks women's equal admiration and love, the first time Women's Day was celebrated in New York, a political event.

Today, this day is celebrated in most countries of the world. Women are generally honored on this day. And by giving them gifts, love is expressed towards them.

 Women have a unique contribution to the creation of a nation, society. A woman is behind the success of a man. Today, Women's Day is a unique festival to remove the wrong mindsets and respect them towards women.

This day does not matter much to us Indians because, in our culture, women are always considered to be revered; every day is like Women's Day.

A woman has a unique role to play in a nation. Today's male-dominated society of women is feeling weak because of which women do not get enough opportunities.

The woman is the embodiment of the goddess. Who develops love by tolerating every situation. Today, we should reflect on women by mentally reflecting and expressing respect and love for women.
