"We were utterly shocked when we learnt about this practice and felt that this story of gross injustice should be told to the world. These women deserve to lead a healthy and dignified life. With this in mind, we took up this cause during Women's Day in order to build a strong collective voice that can reach the relevant authorities in the government, eventually leading to new laws and a ban on uterus removal surgeries. Our philosophy as a brand is to make a difference to the health of people, across social strata," said  Deepak Sahni, CEO & Founder, Healthians.

"We feel honoured to receive the appreciation and hope that our initiative leads to transformation in many more lives," he further added.  

The barbaric practice highlighted in the video is rampant in many sugarcane plantations in certain districts of Maharashtra, and thousands of women undergo hysterectomies every year so as not to lose their daily wages.
