It is an unbelievable daily story. Even Ekta Kapoor would be hard-pressed to think up something like it. So would B.P. Singh.

story of the girl child, who is condemned to die before she is born. Her crime Simply that she is female. And this happens

even as the Award honors women for achievements after they are born, we would like to address their tragedy before

it! Do something about it even if it is only writing a few words on these blank pages, and sending them to us. Add your Apoorva without a Shilpa or Manav without a Shweta (all of whom feature in our Valentine Special Cover Story).

Happy Valentine s Day and let s keep it happy forever!

And Aroona Irani and Ajai Sinha. It is the story of an innocent who is sentenced to death. Without trial. It is the real-life daily, every hour, every second. This then is the focus of the annual GR8! Women Awards, to be held in February. Because they are born. Because a world without women is like a page without words boringly starkly horribly empty. Think about voice to those of many TV personalities, who have spoken out in this issue. Imagine a Varun without a Rajeshwari or And this Valentine s Day, when you gaze into your Valentine s eyes, just imagine what it would be like without her!
