It is still a taboo in a country like India to talk about menstrual hygiene. But Purulia District in West Bengal sets an example to rest of the country by its Kanyashree Group of Adolescent Girls. This Group talks to the local community about the importance of Menstrual Hygiene, Child marriage, and its social Change. Initially, the locals ignored them, but they refused to give up. Today they have become game changers with their work in creating awareness leading to the reduction in cervical disease among women.
