Many women gathered at the community centre to celebrate the International Women’s Day with spirit of feminist and pride at Jalvayu Vihar society in Noida. They were dressed in colourful attires as they participated in the event with all excitement.
The women who graced the occasion were mostly from army families. The event was organised jointly by the Global Yoga Club in an association with the families of the retired and working army officials.
Women of all age groups took the stage individually or in group to recite poems, songs, folk or group dance. All the performances received clapping by the spectators witnessing the event.
