On the eve of International Women's Day 2025, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) Women’s Sexual Harassment Prevention Complaint Committee organised an event at its headquarters on Friday.

Speaking at the event, Mridula Bhatkar, retired judge of Bombay High Court (HC) and Chairperson of the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal, said, "Empowerment of women lies in their skills. Therefore, women must focus more on acquiring diverse skills. Women should be physically and mentally stronger. In society and at work, they should act not just as women but as individuals. Attaining the right to live as an individual is true empowerment. A strong woman can build a better world."
