Mumbai, 08.3.2025: On the occasion of International Women’s Day 2025, the Progressive Foundation of Human Rights (PFHR) organised National Convention on International Women’s Day – “For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment”, March 08, 2025 at Hotel Citizen, Juhu, Mumbai.

Amar Shaheed Mangal Pandey Memorial Awards Of Excellence Were Also Presented To Eminent Personalities For Their Invaluable Contribution To The Society.

International Women’s Day (IWD) is celebrated on the 8th of March every year around the world. It is a focal point in the movement for women’s rights. After women gained suffrage in Soviet Russia in 1917, March 8 was predominantly celebrated by the socialist movement and communist countries until it was adopted by the feminist movement in about 1967. The United Nations began celebrating the day in 1977.

On the occasion of International Women’s Day on 8th March, 2025, the Progressive Foundation of Human Rights (PFHR) organised a National Convention on the theme of the International Day – “For ALL women and girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment” at Hotel Citizen, Juhu, Mumbai, wherein renowned personalities of the country and representatives from 28 states participated. This National Convention is being organised by Progressive Foundation of Human Rights for the last 19 years.

“Let us celebrate the birth of the girl child. We should be equally proud of our daughters. I urge you to sow five plants when your daughter is born to celebrate the occasion,” said honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji. Women are underprivileged in different ways in different societies. The causes of suppression of women — social, economic and political — are deep within not only Indian culture, but many cultures throughout the world. Violations of human rights of women have varied manifestations.

The majority of crimes against women under the Indian penal code were cruelty by husband or his relatives (31.4 per cent) followed by kidnapping and abduction of women (19.2 per cent), assault on women with intent to outrage her modesty (18.7per cent) ,and rape (7.1per cent),the NCRB stated. It is high time that the society at large wake up and understand that it can’t survive without respecting women and no society can be called a civilised society if it disrespects the womenfolk.

The program was presided over by President of Progressive Foundation of Human Rights and Actor Shri Rakesh Pandey.

PFHR is registered with NITI AAYOG & Ministry of Textiles, Govt. of India and has organised numerous Seminars, Conventions and Conferences on all the occasions concerning the society at large in all States and UT’s ever since its inception in 2006.

EXCLUSIVE STORY

Let us know about your journey as  Fitness entrepreneur?

Since childhood, I had a passion for the fitness industry. I used to watch bodybuilders on YouTube and television, observing how they performed their exercises and followed their routines. Eventually, I set up a small gym in my village and started working out myself. Whenever I didn’t know how to perform a particular exercise, I would search for it on YouTube or Google and learn. As I progressed, I also started teaching the local kids. Initially, the children in my village had no knowledge of the gym, but after I set it up, their interest in fitness gradually started to grow.

How tough is reaching people in villages regarding fitness?

Reaching people in villages regarding fitness is quite challenging, especially in the beginning. Creating awareness, providing knowledge, and encouraging them to adapt to something new can be difficult. Many villagers initially believed that fitness was unnecessary because, in the past, their daily activities-like working in the fields and managing household chores-kept them physically active.

However, as time passed and people gained more knowledge about fitness, doubts regarding the gym industry and fitness began to clear. The main issue is that while their physical activity has decreased, their diet remains the same as it was in earlier times. But villages are also modernizing now, and people are gradually realizing that fitness is not just a necessity but an essential part of life.

How important are Health Supplements in fitness industry?

Your journey is inspiring what is your massage to youth especially regarding to fitness?

In today’s time, health supplements have become essential because our diet has become sedentary, providing very little nutrition. People either don’t have time to prepare healthy meals or get bored of eating the same nutritious food. Supplements help fulfill the nutritional gaps that our regular diet cannot provide.

For example, protein is crucial for muscle growth and recovery. BCAAs (Branched-Chain Amino Acids) support muscle repair, while macro and micro nutrients are essential for overall health.

Additionally, supplements play a vital role in bone health, heart health, joint health, muscle recovery, and brain function. They ensure that our body gets the necessary nutrients to stay strong, energetic, and healthy. However, it’s important to take supplements wisely and as per individual needs, preferably under expert guidance.
