"The first compendium of 100 courageous, competent and committed contemporary Muslim women of Karnataka".cover page.
Includes references and index.
Karnataka is home to an estimated 40 lakh women who identify themselves as Muslim, a population which is larger than some of the countries in Central Asia, Africa and Arab world. I celebrate all the hundred RBTC Karnataka honorees spotlighted in this publication for rising in their chosen spheres. They capture the diversity and exemplary accomplishments of Karnataka’s Muslim women. RBTC 100 Karnataka are shattering stereotypes from across the districts of Karnataka and are substantive contributors to nation building. Though first and ground-breaking, RBCT 100 Karnataka identifies is only a very small sliver of the lakhs of Muslim women in the state contributing to the progress of the country. There are many more stories of courage, grit and service that need to be told from all the districts of Karnataka. Our vision is to continue to shine the spotlight through periodic RBTC 100 compendiums. --Publisher description.
