Women are missing out on the workforce or from the workforce because they cannot afford sanitary pads. Girls are exchanging sex for money to buy pads. This in the long run will contribute to the already existing gender equality that we have in our society. We are going to have less girls to participate in the workforce. We are going to have less girls being responsible citizens and contributing to the economy. And so we are calling on the government to remove the taxation on sanitary pads. So this has been a joint effort of women's groups and the Socialist Women's Organa. I used to say these are the women's groups of the Socialist Women's Organa. I say it's all of the Socialist Women's Organa. It's for BASIMA, it's with me, it's Girl Guide. It's all of us groups that have women at the heart and the centre of our patients who have come here today to speak to the powers that be. Those that can actually make the change that we seek happen. We came here to stand by the streets with our placas. We've been doing this for morning and to end all of our cities today. We came up to the Parliament House to meet with the speaker of Parliament. Parliament was in session. He passed Parliament. He met with the leaders for about 10 minutes. We went in and we presented a petition to the right honourable speaker of Parliament. We were able to sit with him. He called off sitting in the Parliament and met with us. He says that he has already started some processes, is meeting with the women's processes, meeting with finance, all of these things. Because all of our petitions have been noted. Because before we came here we have all sent petitions. All of these organisations that I speak about have sent petitions to the House of Parliament asking for things to be done differently. So speaker has assured us that in the shortest possible time this way we are going to hear favourably. I hope by favourably we are not going to be talking such cities or reduction. We are saying take the taxes off. If that doesn't happen we'll come back. He has assured us and we are trusting his words and we know with all the seriousness he has talked to us we want to believe that very, very, very soon our march will not be in vain. Our work will not be in vain. What we have come here to do is historical. It is something that will go into history as one of the important marches by women. Of course I am joining this campaign in solidarity with the women and I realise the fact that they have been discriminated against in terms of these words part, part son. And it is just unheard of. You can see part as a luxury group. It is something that is basic. It is something that is basic and we need to look at it as such. And even understand that the government is making free for our women folks. In fact they are constituting majority of our populace. More than 51% of our populace are being denied this very essential commodity. It is an essential good. I am here to be because of course some of us have been killed in the 80s when we were using emeter for our period. So most of us have contracted infections. If you go and read this right now you see most of about 80% of the girls are having infections or have suffered one form of fate or the other. So I realise that the infections those days or a persistent infection can lead to uncertainty. And most women at my age and above come and bring, have their wounds removed because of the infection. My brothers children or my grandchildren children say for help, I suffer. That is why I am here. And I am very happy that minister has accepted our play and work on this. Comments and friends, don't let this be the end. Let us fight for our rights. We contribute to this economy. We are part of the society. A lot of things goes against us. And from today we should say don't tax my period and any other injustice perpetuated against women should stop. Amen.
