Team of ‘Women beyond Boundries’, interacts with the girl students of EJM College Leh


Leh, June 27 (Scoop News)-The dual team of ‘Women Beyond Boundries’, after reaching Leh had an interesting interaction with the girl students of EJM College Leh today. Women Beyond Boundaries is a team of 3 women who drove from Delhi to London, approximately 23,800 km crossing 13 countries with the idea to encourage women to drive long distances.
This trip that began in Delhi and ended in London and their broad goal was to make a bold statement about long journeys are possible, doable and enjoyable by women.
During the interactive session, Nidhi Tiwari, the lone sole driver encouraging the girl students urged them to have the courage to empower themselves like this team of three girls who have shunned the stigma of women being unfit and unable to do long drives like this. In her case, driving is a skill she enjoys and makes her feel empowered and free.
Deputy Commissioner Leh Prasanna Ramaswamy G who was the chief guest at the interactive session appreciating the team of WBB asked the girls in common to stop blaming the society as they are themselves an important part of the society. There are opportunities laying everywhere and it takes only for the courageous person to grab them at the right time. Boundaries are just illumination of our minds and we need to break them to get free of them. Referring to the free driving coaching given to selected girls by the Administration few months ago, DC Leh urged the girl students to approach him directly for all possible help from the Administration to learn driving that is becoming an important aspect in todays’ life especially keeping the difficult and vast landscape of Ladakh in mind.
During the interactive session the girls asked several questions to Nidhi like family and community reaction; increasing number of traffic; and many other hurdles being faced by the girls.
The professors and lecturers of EJM College headed by the Principal Dr. G.S. Rakwal were also present during this healthy interactive session.
