Concept

Mother's Day is a celebration honouring the mother of the family, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. This day is celebrated on the second Sunday of May every year and is an occasion to show your affection, respect and care towards your mother.

In the spirit of celebrating Mother’s day, Ministry of Women and Child Development, Government of India is organizing a Contest inviting stories about mothers. The Contest shall commence from 8th May, 2016 for a month long duration, ending on 6th June, 2016.

The concept of this campaign is to promote the idea of children sharing anecdotes/ stories about their mother who has defied gender stereotypes, raised her voice against gender discrimination and championed the cause of gender equality and empowerment. This story should have left a long lasting impact and consequently led to a change in the mindset of her family and/or the community at large. The premise is based on the fact that relationship with mother is one of the closest and may be a strong influencer in shaping behaviours and attitudes of her children. A mother is also a source of inspiration and a role model for her children. When an anecdote/story is narrated about a mother, it can be used as a catalyst to bring about a positive change in societal mindset. This may further lead to a more gender sensitive society which recognizes the contributions of a mother, in particular and women, in general.

The objective of the contest is to engage with larger audience through sharing of stories about mothers, thereby encouraging inter-generational dialogue, sensitizing men and boys, being a role model for an empowered daughter. This also creates an opportunity for open conversations against gender discrimination, inequality and dis-empowerment, which in turn leads to a positive mindset change in the society.

Some of the suggested themes are gender equality and empowerment, gender discrimination, sexual harassment, domestic violence, social evils like dowry and early marriage and so on.

When I was delivered I did not know this pain but you know today every moment I feel that pain. Today I am alive & have a feeling again she gave her life to me & she died.Mother is mother who bears so much pain & say nothing. I feel lonely, remember her every moment. I SALUTE ALL MOTHERS FOR BEING SO LOVING & CONSIDERATE. AS A SHADOW, A TREE & endless adjectives....... We love you mummy, you will always in our heart.

live. My family took me on stretcher on her funeral, for saying her good bye, I was on stretcher & she was on another. I told my sister I want to put holy Tulsi leaves in her mouth as she was waiting for me & calling me & she will not able to go.I was crying & then we were parted I & mummy were taken by people on the opposite sides & that time I had a strong feeling that today I am separated from my mother by sawing placenta & is a unbearable pain which I feel today also after 8 years.

You're my best friend in the good times and my rock in times of sorrow.You're the reason for sweet yesterdays and my promise for tomorrow. I never thought I could feel this loved.You make my every moment the best momemt of my life.

इस महफ़िल से कोई उठकर गया
कोई दिल नहीं तड़पा, कोई आँख नहीं रोई
कैसे कह दूँ की ज़माना ख़राब है
एक माँ भी तो है, जो की अब तक नहीं सोई

This is real story of most of the mothers in India. The first day of her motherhood starts with C-section on stomach because most of the time the Greedy Doctor has misguided his family and created artificial panic to convert a normal child delivery to a major operation. Don't ask me why, obviously for higher Medical Bill. I would have paid 10 times more to Doctor, if I only knew that all this going to happen because of BILL. Now she (Mother of my child) has to suffer. Solution: same bill for all
