Tag: Velu Nachiya

In Southern India, remarkable women rewrote history but were overlooked. Velu Nachiyar bravely fought the British in 1780, Vani Vilas Sannidhana championed education and health in Mysore, Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddy broke barriers in medicine and social reform, and Suraiyya Tyabji designed the Indian national flag. Their stories deserve recognition and a place in history.
