Manav Anand Ahuja, the writer, co-producer and lead actor of the educational film PEST based on menstrual hygiene awareness said, \u201cWe wanted to educate particularly \u2018men\u2019 about menstrual aspects of women through this movie. The reason for this is that during school days\u2019 boys are kept away from menstrual education, while special lectures are given only to girl students. We aim to bridge the gap and educate men about what sort of pain women go through during their menstrual cycles,\u201d said Ahuja.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, a cultural dance performance by MA Dance Academy, Panchkula enlivened the occasion. All the volunteers and supporters of Meshaan Foundation were felicitated by the chief guest and guests of honour.<\/p>\n The NGO Meshaan Foundation has been working on various socially beneficial projects like self-defence workshops for girls in government girls\u2019 schools, among NCC girl cadets, plantation drives, etc. The NGO is also working on a plastic free project, and has started plantation drives to increase the participation of youngsters in safeguarding the environment.<\/p>\n A herbal garden was recently established at Government Modern Senior Secondary School(GMSSS), Sec 38 W, Dadu Majra Colony (DMC) by Meshaan Foundation.
