A new magazine edited and brought out entirely by women - the first of its kind in India - seeks to infuse fresh perspective in a male-dominated world besides contributing to the cause of orphans.
Entitled Indraprastha NCR, the magazine launched last month in Ghaziabad, caters to suburban areas of Uttar Pradesh adjoining the capital and aims to reach out to a wider readership in course of time.
But this all-women show is more than a venture with a USP.
It also owes its existence to the cause of sponsoring the education of destitute children in the National Capital Region (NCR), or the areas surrounding Delhi.
"Seven of us women got together for this venture," Neena Jha, one of the founder proprietors of the magazine, told IANS.
They put the magazine together with their own money and plan to write mostly about politics, social issues, women's issues and educational issues among others. The women themselves are mostly activist, mothers, educators and journalists.
