“Bahina Dooj” or Sisterhood Celebrations! . Jashan Bahinchaare ka
Since 2016, the Organization of Strong Women Alone has been celebrating the Sisterhood of single women, and arranging programmes to greet and meet their single women sisters. The single women of the Organization realized that Indian society has special days in which sisters honour their brothers – the festival of “Rakhee”, and “Bhai Dooj” (just after the festival of Diwali). But there were no special days on which Sisters honour their Sisters! And so they created “Bahina Dooj” or “Sisters’ Day”, usually within the 10 - 14 days after the festival of Diwali.
