West Bengal is famously known as the land of Durga Puja. A woman slaying the evil and being celebrated in her glorious form every year!

How the women of Bengal have always been respected and movements have happened for them (Sati abolition) and have created paths to follow for generations to come. Be it politics, be it social work, be it academics or sports – Bengali women over ages have been pioneers in their own way and have created history. From freedom fighters to scaling mountains or representing India in a world stage, women from Bengal have always shone bright.

These podcasts by RJ Nilam will share such achievements and reveal the unheard side of their life and inspire many more to carry on this legacy.
