Lohri is celebrated on the name of boy child but our organization started this initiative of celebrating Lohri Parv Kanyao Ke Naam under the Abhiyan Sankalp Uthao Beti Bachao to save the girl child and organized events and programs related to it. Honouring a girl to make her life respectful was an act done by our organization. Without girls there is no future. They are the vital part of this World. So it becomes necessary to save them from abuse, conservative mentality, honour killing, abortion and many more issues related to Girl Child.
Under Sankalp Uthao Beti Bachao Abhiyan, many acts have been done by ZILA YUVA VIKAS SANGHTHAN to honour the mothers who gave birth to the girl child in the month of January every year before 13th January i.e. Lohri and. So that everyone can understand the value of a girl child. Discrimination against girls in India has been going on since ages now. Even today, there are several sections of the Indian society where the girl child is treated as a burden. While several privileges are given to the boys; girls are often restricted to the confines of house and given very little or no opportunities to learn and grow in life. It is a matter of great shame that cases of female infanticide are still reported.
Our organization honour those Ladies who have done extremely tremendous work in Society and to show honour Awards are given to them on the name of “Mahila Jagruk Award and Award of Appreciation”. To make them know the value of a girl child, ZYVS honoured the mothers who gave birth to girl child.
