"Why self-respect marriage?"  By Periyar is the book we chose for this month's Puthaga Pennil by Thaalisangili. 

Self-respect marriage or Suyaa Mariyadhai Thirumanam recognises only marriage vows that accept both members as equal companions in life, doing away with the holy fires, priests, and any ritual that designates the woman as subordinate to her husband. It has become a sanctuary for inter-caste marriages. 

This book explains how to choose the right life partner and how to live a married life with self-respect.

Thaalisangili, a digital magazine joins hands with Chalkpiece to talk about various social issues and raise awareness with main focus on women empowerment.
