National Girl Child Day 2025: The day spread awareness about the inequalities that girls face in the society of India due to gender bias. It was initiated by the Ministry of Women and Child Development in 2008. The day was also marked with several awareness campaigns related to the child-sex ratio, and the creation of a healthy and safe environment for girls.
National Girl Child Day is also known as Rashtriya Balika Diwas and is observed in India on 24 January. A globally recognized voice on gender equality and justice, Kavita Ramdas, said: "We need women who are so strong they can be gentle, so educated they can be humble, so fierce they can be compassionate, so passionate they can be rational, and so disciplined they can be free."

National Girl Child Day 2025: Poems on Girls
1. THAT crazed girl improvising her music.
Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,
Her soul in division from itself
Climbing, falling She knew not where,
Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship,
Her knee-cap broken, that girl I declare
A beautiful lofty thing, or a thing
Heroically lost, heroically found.
No matter what disaster occurred
She stood in desperate music wound,
Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
Where the bales and the baskets lay
No common intelligible sound
But sang, 'O sea-starved, hungry sea.'
By William Butler Yeats
2. Educate a Girl Child
Why don't you educate me?
I am not just born to make coffee and tea.
My heart pains badly
When I say this sadly.
I would like to go
To schools where children get everything to know.
You don't know how I feel
When children carry bags and meal.
I am just a small child
Who is so gentle and mild.
At least now let me go to school
For I don't want to be a fool.
Then before you parents we will glow like pearls
So at least now please educate girls.
