Lucknow: “Dandiya Raas 2024” was organized by “Lucknow Shipies Wives” group, which has a distinct identity for contributing to the society with its creativity and dedication. This special program, which started at 2.30 pm on 2 October 2024, was not only fun, frolic and full of energy but it was also a charity program. Through this, funds were raised for physically handicapped children and efforts were also made for women empowerment.
Help to needy children
Shalini Chitranshi, Dr. Nisha Chaudhary, Dr. Tulsi Mehta and Sameeksha Sengar of this group, who organized this special social service event, said that every year such programs are organized by our group in which not only the members get a chance to show their creativity but social service is also done. Whatever amount we raised through this program will be used to help physically handicapped and needy children.
Women empowerment through art
It is worth mentioning that this group has been working for women empowerment for many years. This time also a plan has been made to empower through art. Handicraft and hand art related material is made available to needy women by the “Lucknow Shipies Wives” group. So that they can use their creativity and art to make purses, dresses etc. and sell them and establish their own employment. The group also helps in selling the products prepared by needy women. So that their employment challenges are reduced and they can get facilities.
This time there were many special attractions in Dandiya Raas
The organizers of the program Shalini Chitranshi, Dr. Nisha Chaudhary, Dr. Tulsi Mehta and Sameeksha Sengar said that many special attractions were included in this year’s Dandiya Raas. More than 90 women members of the group gave different presentations on bhajans and evergreen songs in traditional and cultural costumes. Garba was performed in a family atmosphere, which will remain memorable for the people for a long time. A special Garba theme was kept for the Garba participants and they were also given titles. Along with the selfie corner, there were many such facilities which made the program special.
Moti Bank got international recognition
Lucknow Shipies Wives organized “Moti Bank” last year in the Dandiya Dance of 2023 keeping in mind the objective of social interest and public welfare, which was appreciated not only in Uttar Pradesh and India but all over the world. This event was also recorded in the International Book of Records. Moti were collected in the event and sent to Ayodhya.
Along with this, support was given by raising funds for the education and health of needy children. In the coming times also, similar programs will be organized by “Lucknow Shipies Wives” so that they can also support the lower class of the society.
