The galaxy of bright stars will remain incomplete of we wouldn’t include the magnificent tennis star Sania Mirza, who achieved six Grand Slam titles from 2003 until her retirement from singles in 2013, she was ranked by the Women’s Tennis Association as India’s No. 1 player. Benazir Bhutto, the first ever elected female prime minister, the youngest prime minister elected in the Islamic world. She was brilliant, bold and brave but assassinated untimely which left a grave impression in the history of Pakistan. The United States strongly condemns this cowardly act by murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan’s democracy,” President Bush said from his ranch near Crawford, “Those who committed this crime must be brought to justice.” “I will try and be what he loves to call me, ‘a little woman,’ and not be rough and wild; but do my duty here instead of wanting to be somewhere else.” (Quote from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott) The history is evident of inspirational women who deserve celebration, as they steadfastly
strove to assert their individuality gracefully, to defy the world as, ‘I will not be triumphed over though the best is yet to come!’
