A Himachali woman in her lifetime plays many crucial roles that make her indispensable. A woman’s role as a mother goes beyond bearing and rearing children. She, being a wife is a husband’s confidante, a protector from the evil eye, someone who he could count on to share his trials and tribulations and help him get over the hurdles.

Himachali women in the line of entrepreneurship think of business enterprises and operate them.  They undertake risks and handle economic uncertainties involved in running a business.

The ‘Mrs. Manali – Queen of Substance’ pageant is the most respectable title and award in  Himachal Pradesh  for married women, who would be recognised as successful women, state the organisers.
