INDIAN DOMESTIC WORKERS UNIONS ARE INSPIRED BY YOU ALL AND WE HAVE MILES TO GO BEFORE WE REACH THE NATIONAL CONGRESS STAGE. OF COURSE AT VARIOUS LEVELS ,IN STATES EFFORTS ARE GOING ON ,BOTH AT THE GROUND LEVEL AS WELL AS AT THE LOBBYING LEVEL. BOTH PATRIARCHAL AND FEUDAL ATTITUDES AND MINDSETS ARE BIG BLOCKS IN OUR COUNTRY.THE SOCIAL HIERARCHIES OF CASTE AND OCCUPATION,IN THE MINDS OF BOTH EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES REMAIN MAJOR STUMBLING BLOCKS. ALSO VARIOUS STRATEGIES ARE BEING WORKED OUT AT THE SOCIAL LEVEL FOR DIGNITY AND RECOGNITION!!
SO ALL COMRADES,OUR HEARTS AND IN SPIRIT WE ALL ARE WITH U. SEND US THE REPORTS AND ALL THE BEST,EVERY SUCCESS........

Dear Geeta:
Not sure if this blog is still running.
What are your most recent initiatives? What are your greatest needs? I ask because I have a deep concern about the situation faced by domestic workers and would like to help.
Warmly,
Lorna

I would like to know more about the news and the girl. I am working as the E-journal Editor for SRC. Can you please let me know where and how to access you.
