ABOUT RUBARU:
“Ru-Ba-Ru” is a dialogue forum between police and the students on issues related to gender equality. It gives a chance for the Mahila Samman Prakoshth to communicate directly with the public and listen to them, while explaining gender equality practices in an accessible way. So far, RUBARU has been conducted primarily with students (both boys and girls) regarding the rights given to women by law and emphasizes on their roles as co-partners and co-workers in achieving social justice. The program is constructed on the premise that their mindset and vision today will define the stability of society tomorrow.
