More than two dozen homemakers (housewives) of Dhanbad celebrated Republic Day by participating in a fashion show on Monday, a day ahead of Republic Day. The fashion show was organised by a Jharia-based youth organization Samadhan, in a private banquet hall of Saraidhela. The homemakers walked the ramp donning attires of our national heroes including Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Rani Lakshmi Bai, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh, Khudiram Bose, etc.
The event was organised with the aim of providing an opportunity to housewives who themselves do not get the chance of participating in competitions and cultural programmes as they remain busy preparing their children for Republic Day functions.
