Former Miss World Manushi Chhillar was recently appointed by the UN Women The United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women, to raise awareness on gender-based violence. The project emphasizes the global initiative under #OrangeTheWorld to counter domestic violence.
The diva shared a video post on her official Instagram account captioned, “Violence against women has only grown since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic giving rise to the shadow pandemic. Now more than ever, there is a need to build a safer environment for women and girls around the world. Let’s build back better and equal.”
