Women Uplifting Women: Gender Justice Advocacy by Hari Chandana and Priyanka Gandhi  

Both inheritors of political legacies and changemakers in patriarchal ecosystems, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi #PriyankaGandhi and administrator Hari Chandana #HariChandana leverage considerable influence securing legal and socio-economic transformations empowering women confronting deeply entrenched inequities at scale. Beyond shared family names and female firsts, their bottom up welfare commitment and governance creativity distinguish them as uplifters demonstrating what women ascending to power choose to do with it. #Telangana  

Where Gandhi binds women’s rights with farmer struggles in UP integrating gender within mainstream agenda, Chandana makes urban spaces safer through she toilets and self defense driving local capability shifts through SHGs. However effecting structural change remains more ambitious than hyper local proofs of concept although values converge institutionally. Still amidst deeply embedded roadblocks, their leadership signals possibilities of purpose driven power applied ethically – be it through law making nationally or municipal demonstration locally – containing vital lessons for next generation women politicians and administrators. #INC
