This has been seen in the media as a symbol of the struggle for their rights. In some places, the practice of treating women as objects of enjoyment rather than as worthy ones is prevalent. Since ancient times, they have been forbidden from studying, not even being honored. They are confined to the four walls of their homes, considered the pride of the house. They are forbidden from openly roaming around in the fields. Statistics show that in the Indian democracy, women have the right to vote, not just the Prime Minister. However, in recent years, India’s women have been fighting for their equal rights.
They have successfully achieved equal status in the Indian Army, not only achieving promotions and equal pay compared to men, but also achieving annual increments. Priyanka Sen of Rajasthan is an example of this. Despite her short stature, Priyanka struggled to change the rules and found a way to build a career. Priyanka, a daughter of Kota city, through her struggle, found a way to enlist in the Indian Navy, a country open to short-statured girls from all over the world. The minimum height requirement for girls there is 157 cm, but many girls were unable to enlist due to their short stature. Now, after much struggle, this limit has been reduced to 152 cm.
Priyanka repeatedly argued and pleaded with the Navy officials, and with her consent, she changed her mind. Then came the problem that, despite changing her appearance, the companies were not giving her a job. Priyanka kept trying and kept going around the companies, facing all kinds of problems. She even tried. Finally, the corporation had to be removed, and in the year 2021, she became the first girl to reach this level. She kept getting taunts, but she did not lose courage. Priyanka made her own way and did not let her height become a problem in the Navy and other private sector companies as well. Today, girls of Kota height are also getting recruited in these companies at high salaries. Consider this an achievement of Gale Bug.
