Maintaining Communal Harmony and Love
- The Organization of Strong Women Alone (Ekal Nari Shakti Sansthan) is made up of associated Single Women of every caste, community and religion. Aside from being “women”, what they have in common is their “Singleness”. The Organization for them is a Sisterhood, pulled together as a result of the common experience of not living together with a man, as a “couple”, as a “married couple”, with a “partner”. This bond expands to feelings of mutual respect, friendship, “Single Women colleagues”, working together for better lives for themselves, and for the Indian communities in which they live. Many have expressed that for them, the Organization is their “alternate family” – they live as Sisters!


These days, in the world, we can observe that hatred is being spread amongst people in the name of religion. From 2016, the Organisation celebrates a group event in the name of “Bahina Dooj” (Sisters’ Day) whereby women come together in large numbers to celebrate their sisterhood, and spread the message of communal harmony, love, peace and tolerance to the society and to the community at large. The programmes are held at the Village Council level, and some other members of the community also attend, and contribute.
