In my country there are many things which are wrong . But, according to me, there are two factors- corruption and gender inequality. Corruption has made my country really financially low. Black money has stopped the development of my country and sadly, government is doing nothing about it.Secondly, I feel women are still not getting equal position in society. Even today in many parts of India people want boy to be born not a girl. This gender inequality really upsets me a lot .And the sad part is nobody is taking a proper step about it.

• If you are selected as a Charity Ambassador what value addition would you like to make for our society and how?

If I get this beautiful opportunity to become a charity ambassador I would really like to spread awareness about menstrual hygiene in rural areas of my city. I believe that women of rural areas are still not aware about this hygiene and still using cloth for this problem.
Ways to spread awareness:
A). Taking workshops: I would like to take workshop in rural schools for teenage girls and teach them about this hygiene.
b) Raising funds: I would like to raise funds to distribute sanitary napkins in rural areas to women and would like to tell them how to use it .
