International Women’s Day Celebration for Malda Women Doctors Association,occurred to celebrate women leaders and achievers helping Malda town grow. Guessing what women of today and tomorrow want is never easy.But one thing we all seem to have in common.A burning desire to do our own thing and support our own dreams, raise our families, and grow with our communities.
For this, we organized an essay writing contest at two of Maldas famous Girl’s Schools on the topic
Importance of Education and Financial Independence for Women
Ayushi Majumdar from CC Girls School ,Malda came first.
We wanted it to be an event to remember and the Honorable Chairman of the English Bazar Municipality Advocate Mr.Krishnendu Narayan Choudhury graced the occasion along with Dr.Tapas Chakraborty (President IMA Malda) to lend support to our voice.
Who were Felicitated?
- Amongst those felicitated were Madam CMOH Dr.Papri Nayak
- Head Mistress Barlow Girls High School: Ms. Dipasree Majumdar
- Head Mistress C.C Girls High School Ms.Moumita Pramanik
- Nursing Superintendent Malda Medical College: Ms. Rupali Choudhary
- Sister Incharge: Ms. Anima Roy
- Nursing Officer: Ms. Minati Sikdar
We wanted to listen to what the girl of today thought about being a woman of tomorrow. The event was organized and hosted by the Women Doctors Association of Malda under the leadership of Dr.Chitra De, Dr.Arpita Chakraborty and Dr.Sushmita Sarkar. Amongst the many discussion that happened on that day an important point was the untold stories of our women grass root health workers.ANM’s , ASHA and Anganwadi.
There are many ways of standing up and doing our part for the community. The best one is to do what you do best, sincerely, with what you have and where you are. If we can all do that with all our hearts, I am sure the world will become even more beautiful.
The event was covered by the local press and was a resounding success. The last event conducted by the Women Doctors Association was the free Health Care Camp at Usha Martin School Malda with a focus on Mental health.Coming up next on April 8th 2023 is a Basic Life Support training conducted by AMRI Dhakuria ,Kolkata in association with Women Doctor’s Association.
My daughter wrote a poem for the occasion and doodled for me.

Hi Dr. Amrita Basu.
Keep up your great work of reaching out to inform and inspire others. In North America, the first step in reconciliation with our indigenous peoples is to ask them what they need. Then, to listen and pay attention to the answers.
Thanks for your continued contribution to this blog challenge.
