When we talk about a nation’s progress, one question reveals everything: How do we treat our daughters?

Because the story of a girl child is often the story of society itself—its beliefs, its biases, and its hopes for the future.

Across India, many families still hesitate to celebrate the birth of a daughter. Educational opportunities are uneven. Women’s financial independence is seen as optional, not essential.
Yet, change is unfolding quietly—and powerfully—through individuals who believe that every girl deserves to be welcomed, educated, and empowered.

This episode brings you the inspiring journey of Dr. Ebha Singh, founder of Nanhi Pari Foundation, an initiative that began with a simple yet profound act: celebrating the birth of a girl child.
What started as a gesture of love has grown into a movement that supports mothers, nurtures daughters, strengthens education, and builds pathways for women’s financial independence—one family, one village, one girl at a time.

We explore:

• The personal moment that inspired Dr. Ebha to start Nanhi Pari in 2021

• How celebrating newborn daughters can shift traditions, mindsets, and community culture

• The recognition from the Honourable Governor of Uttar Pradesh—and what it means for the movement

• The biggest barriers to girls’ education today and how Nanhi Pari works to dismantle them

• How income-generation tools like dairy support, mulching machines, and sewing machines are transforming women’s confidence and agency

• A message of hope for parents and young listeners about embracing daughters as catalysts of progress
