Different strokes for different folks?

Girls across India are learning lessons they ought not to. In the villages they are learning to take care of their house (or their in-laws'), while in the cities and towns, many school-going girls are grappling with dreams they cannot pursue because of societal pressure and stereotypes of what a girl should or shouldn't do. Unfortunately, in both the cases, the casualty is her dreams and her spirit.

Voice your thoughts, spread the word. Only if we, together, stand up for her rights can we end the discrimination.
