In a social media activity, India TV asked netizens to mention the special woman in their life on International Women's Day 2019. Here are the shortlisted ones.
On the occasion of International Women's Day 2019, India TV encouraged netizens to mention the special woman in their life. We asked them to share a selfie on social media and tell us why they hold a special place in their life. Those interested in participating had to use the hashtags, ''#WomanInMyLife and #WomensDayWithIndiaTV''. From wife, sister to maid, people took to social media to pen down 'why she is the one'. The contest received a huge response and we have shortlisted few among them. An Instagram account that goes by the user id rima.gargg shared an adorable selfie with her house helper and wrote, ''she is inspiration not only to me but many working maid's like her who quit easily after a setback. A proud smile on her face inspire me to be confident in every weak situation''.
Another Instagram user shared a selfie with her mom and wrote, ''You are an amazing, strong and selfless woman and I am so lucky to have a mother like you......#momandme #womaninmylife #diaryofshella''. Have a look:
