According to @unicef , India has the highest absolute number of Child #brides in the world- 15,509,000! 
While the number is down by 51% since 2000( According to an article in @economictimes), States of Bihar, Rajasthan and West Bengal still remain hubs of this #social #evil. 
Deeply rooted cultural norms and lack of education are some of the reasons for the prevalence of this practice. Educating daughters is not seen as a priority. Parents would rather save money for dowry than invest in their child's education. #TrueStory
Adolescents, both boys and girls, need to be empowered and educated. There's a need to make them feel strong enough and SAFE enough to stand up against it.
India is working towards eliminating child, early and forced marriage by 2030. We would love for you to be a part of this initiative in your own little way- educate your drivers and house help, tell them that it's both morally and legally wrong. Save the girl child from all the horrific sexual, psychological and physical trauma that comes with early marriage.All Rights Reserved

Saanjh ~ his Pure Devotion by irishauthor_

Saanjh, a bright-eyed and ambitious young girl, had her entire life mapped out before her. With a burning desire to make a difference, she dreamed of teaching children, gaining independence, and exploring the world beyond her small town. Her heart swelled with excitement at the prospect of chasing her dreams. She envisioned herself as a beacon of hope for young minds, inspiring them to reach for the stars. But fate had other plans. Immediately after completing her 12th standard, Saanjh's family forced her into a marriage with Vijay, a 25-year-old farmer's son. Vijay, though kind-hearted, had been forced to abandon his own dreams of pursuing higher education due to family issues. As the elder child, he took on the responsibility of helping his father in the fields, sacrificing his own aspirations. As Saanjh's dreams lay shattered, she found herself torn between her own aspirations and the expectations of her new family. The thought of sacrificing her independence and autonomy was suffocating. She felt like a bird with clipped wings, longing to soar but grounded by the weight of responsibility. Vijay, too, was trapped in his own way. He felt the burden of his family's struggles, the weight of his own lost dreams. He wondered if he would ever find a way to break free from the cycle of farming, to forge his own path. As Saanjh and Vijay navigated their new life together, they must confront the harsh realities of their circumstances. Will they be able to accept each other, despite their differing backgrounds and dreams? Will their love be enough to overcome the challenges that lay ahead, or will it become a casualty of their circumstances? Can Saanjh find a way to revive her lost dreams, and will Vijay be able to support her on her journey?
