Irresistible Rise of Draupadi Murmu Who Makes History

"A woman is like a tea bag—you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water." - Eleanor Roosevelt

There has been ample evidence of women being viewed as less valuable than men ever since the dawn of civilisation. Almost all nations, regardless of how progressive, have a history of mistreating women. As a result, women ultimately began to reflect on their place in society, and some even became rebellious to achieve the position they do now. A woman has the right to live with dignity and independence. Additionally essential to furthering development and eradicating poverty is the empowerment of women. Women who are empowered increase the prospects for the future generation as well as the health and productivity of their entire families and communities.

With a colourful victory, Draupadi Murmu emerged from the confines of patriarchal society. The former Governor of Jharkhand, Draupadi Murmu is the second female and first tribal woman to become the President of India. The Bhartiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance coalition government is currently on cloud nine as Draupadi Murmu proved the mettle of her hard work. After Pratibha Patil, who was the first female President of India, Draupadi Murmu created history and inspired the entire tribal community with her political success. However, although everyone is talking about the 15th President of India, not everyone seems to be aware of her journey till now.

Draupadi Murmu was born on June 20, 1958, into a Santali tribal family in the hamlet of Uparbeda in the Odisha district of Mayurbhanj. Due to the fact that her father and grandparents served as sarpanches under the Panchayat Raj, Draupadi came from a prominent family. Draupadi Murmu's journey from a small hamlet in Odisha to becoming India's second female president is simply remarkable, despite the fact that she was born into a tribal household and without adequate means.
