This is why Viplob wanted the widows to be financially independent and business women...

She also seemed to think excluding widows from festivities could be compared to their being treated as being less-equal in the West. Educated, middle class widows staying voluntarily away from religious rituals and auspicious occasions because they don't want to give someone a chance to humiliate them by asking them to stay away would be difficult to understand for someone who doesn't really know that the biggest blessing an Indian woman can be given is that she dies before her husband - i.e. dies a sumanagali. No widow, no Widow-ashram. That's how India solves problems.

Hats off to the writers, for bringing sensitive issues into a limelight...👏
Thanks a lot captkrik for sharing this article..! 😃
