“Why is a Muslim woman considered illiterate if she is wearing burqa or niqab? If provided an opportunity, she can achieve anything she desires. This is an opportunity we will provide to young girls from socially weaker sections,” said Sabiha Ahmad, RBTC Uttar Pradesh coordinator and UP Sunni Waqf Board member.

Explaining further she said that RBTC is not just helping in breaking the stereotype about Muslim women but is also contributing to nation-building.

“Bringing women from different areas of work, such as the women in uniform, in academics, arts, journalism, and others, for mentoring help in building self-confidence in young girls and gives wings to their aspirations,” she said.

“Regardless of religion, any girl with the aspiration to work in any field can get in touch with the organization to seek whatever help is required. The mentorship is free of cost, and we have started inviting submissions for it apart from the current mentees being guided already,” she added.
