AAP's Raghav Chadha urges India to recognize menstrual hygiene as a right, citing stigma and lack of access as barriers to girls' education.
AAP MP Raghav Chadha urged India to treat menstrual hygiene as a fundamental right during a Rajya Sabha speech, stressing that stigma and lack of access to pads, water, and privacy prevent over 35 crore girls and women from attending school.
He criticized societal double standards, noting the open sale of alcohol and tobacco contrasted with the secretive packaging of sanitary products.
Chadha called for systemic change, citing government efforts like the Suvidha brand pads sold at ₹1 each through 16,000 centers and rising hygienic practice rates from 57.6% to 77.3% between NFHS-4 and NFHS-5.
He emphasized that progress depends on ending silence, improving education, and ensuring dignity for all girls.
