New Delhi [India], August 6 (ANI): Rekha Sharma, the chairperson of the National Commission for Women (NCW), stepped down today, marking the end of her nine-year tenure.
In a heartfelt message shared on X, Sharma reflected on her journey, expressing gratitude for the support she received and the experiences she encountered.
Sharma described her tenure as a “roller coaster ride,” highlighting her journey from humble beginnings to completing three terms at the NCW. She emphasized the significant impact the role had on her, particularly the interactions with women across various walks of life.
“Today marks the final day of my nine-year tenure as the Chairperson of the National Commission for Women (NCW). These nine years have been like a roller coaster ride for me. Coming from a humble background to finishing three terms in the NCW is a long way I have walked,” the NCW Chief wrote in a post on X.
“It was not only about the achievements and new initiatives; it was about the learning experiences and the overwhelming love and affection from women across India. I will never forget the women in mental asylums who would not stop hugging me, the elderly lady in Vrindavan Ashram who embraced me like my mother, or the thousands of women in prison who shared their life stories with me. These moments have left an indelible mark on my heart,” the NCW Chief wrote on X.
Sharma also addressed the challenges of her role, acknowledging the criticism she faced, especially on social media. However, she maintained a positive outlook, expressing no regrets and only gratitude for the experiences and lessons learned.
“Social media, with its freedom, can be ruthless at times, with people passing judgment without truly knowing you or your work. I wish they had taken the time to understand my efforts and intentions better. Despite this, I have no regrets–only gratitude,” she stated on X. (ANI)
