A letter to the Editor, The Hindu.

 Sir, — The article rings an alarm. Let not our present-day women be carried away by the liberties they find themselves showered with.

With power and freedom come responsibility and majesty. Let them fulfil the vision of our forefathers who dreamt of them as dignified, dauntless women.

Pavalamani Pragasam,
Chennai
