What they do not say is that women’s lives are also largely unrecorded. Women, and the work they do, slip through memory’s net leaving large gaps in our collective consciousness about challenges faced and mastered, discoveries made and celebrated, collaborations forged and valued. Combating this pervasive amnesia is not an easy task. This book is a beginning in another direction, an attempt to try and construct the professional lives of four of Mumbai’s women (where the discussion has ventured into the personal lives of these women, it has only been in relation to the professional or to their public images). And who better to attempt this construction than young people on the verge of building their own professional lives? In learning about the lives of inspiring professionals, we hoped our students would learn about navigating a world they were about to enter and also perhaps have an opportunity to reflect a little and learn about themselves. So four groups of students of the post-graduate diploma in Social Communications Media, SCMSophia’s class of 2014 set out to choose the women whose lives they wanted to follow and then went out to create stereoscopic views of them.

It was the sixth edition of the joint exercise between these two nations. The exercise was conducted from 26th March 2019 to 08th April 2019. According to World Press Freedom Index 2019 released by an International NGO, „Reporters without Borders‟, India has dropped to two places down on a global press freedom index to be ranked 140th out of 180 countries. The index is based on the assessment of the countries‟ press freedom records in the previous year. The report is partly based on a questionnaire which asked questions about pluralism, media independence, environment and self-censorship, legislative framework, transparency, and infrastructure. India is ranked at 19th position with a score of 64.9 out of 28 countries in the Index of Cancer Preparedness (ICP) released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). It is released as part of the report titled “Cancer preparedness around the world: National readiness for a global epidemic” by EIU. The ICP explores the issue of cancer preparedness through three broad domains i.e. policy and planning, care delivery, health systems, and governance. In eLearning training, Telangana state has ranked number one by reaching to 20,000 field staff during 2018-19. This is the second year in succession that the State got the distinction under the Department of Personal and Training (DoPT). During the last two years, over 40,000 field staff belonging to different departments have been trained in the State.

Political activist, actor, playwright and poet, Safdar had been deeply committed, like so many young men and women of his generation, to the anti-imperialist, secular and egalitarian values that were woven into the rich fabric of the nation’s liberation struggle. Safdar moved closer to the Left, eventually joining the CPI(M), to pursue his goal of being part of a social order worthy of a free people. Tragically, it would be of the manner of his death at the hands of a politically patronised mafia that would single him out. The spontaneous, nationwide wave of revulsion, grief and resistance aroused by his brutal murder transformed him into a powerful symbol of the very values that had been sought to be crushed by his death. Such a death belongs to the revolutionary martyr. 6 PUBLICATIONS Safdar was thirty-four years old when he died.
