This portfolio is a heartfelt tribute to India, its vibrant people, and its rich, complex culture, born from a deep love and profound respect for the nation and its enduring spirit, symbolised by the powerful and aspirational figure of Mother India.

Following India’s independence in 1947, the concept of “Mother India” emerged as a symbolic representation of the nation, embodying a powerful sense of Indian nationalism and the project of nation-building. This metaphorical figure serves as a metonym for the ideal Indian woman, characterised by unwavering moral principles embodying the selfless, nurturing role of a mother to society.
