  • WATCH: WOMEN'S SPECIAL COVER | DARPAN MAGAZINE | TEASER

Every year in March, DARPAN celebrates the power of women by highlighting inspiring stories of South Asian female achievers in the March/April issue.

This tradition started in 2020 when we featured our first International Women’s Day issue in March that year. Sponsored by Teja Foods, this year’s women’s issue puts the spotlight on 7 empowering personalities.

DARPAN salutes the women in our community for their relentless courage and unyielding voice that has shaped BC’s South Asian community in Canada.

Stay tuned for the 2022 March/April Women’s Day Cover.
