Organised by the Western India Automobile Association, who celebrated their 100th anniversary and decorated a number of their members, the Fiesta thanked their sponsors JK Tyre and the event presenters Omkar 1973.

Mumbai, March 2019: AdvocateAbha Singh speaks on #MeToo in Corporate India” at the India Dialogues, 2018 organised by the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University, New York, USA. The other speakers at the conference included Rajiv Mehrishi, Comptroller and Auditor General of India, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Former Chairman of Planning Commission, Ratna Sahay of IMF and Arvind Panagariya of Columbia University.
Addressing the students at the University, Abha Singh says, “I am happy to be in a city which has statue of a fearless girl. And that is what Meetoo is aiming at, to make each and every one of us fearless and safe in our workplace. My message from SIPA, Columbia University to all the Metoo Warriors that you are not a victim for sharing your story, Infact you are a survivor setting the world on fire with your truth. I call them Metoo warriors because these are the brave hearts which are going to make the work place safe for all you Youngers when you graduate and look for a job. “
“In Metoo movement, Women have come forward and said it is not something to be ashamed of; it is the predator who should be ashamed of. But what is important that the punishment needs to be given. For that the police needs to be made accountable. FIRS are not being registered; Just asking you to step down does not absolve you of the crime under the IPC. So if people are saying that this person has stepped down or this person has been removed, the crime continues. The IPC is very clear that if you have committed the crime, you have to go behind bars. These people who are the role models for the country, some of them were till Metoo happened, they should be behind bars and for that it has to be a public movement; it has to be accountability and it has to be the women of this country who are not going to be silenced. You have to raise your voices because you have to make your future generation safe.”

The Panel Discussion was about Leap jump in Assisted Reproduction techniques and how Laws must have all stakeholders on board to pass the Surrogacy Bill. Abha Singh shares her views on the 2016 Surrogacy Bill which is only passed by Lok Sabha and stuck in Rajya Sabha. According to her, “The 2016 Surrogacy Bill which was passed came into place because there are no proper laws and regulations in place.” As a women empowerment activist, I strongly feel, we have a right to become a mother. We have a right to Surrogacy according to Article 21 of the constitution which is right to life. For me Motherhood is equally important and the committee recommends that Woman can go ahead with Surrogacy even within one year of marriage.”
