Dr. Bharati Lavekar, MLA, is widely recognized as the "Pad Woman of India" for her impactful initiatives on menstrual hygiene. Through her "TEE" Foundation, she has championed the distribution of sanitary pads and installed sanitary pad vending machines to support women's health. Dr. Lavekar's initiative, the 'Daughters of Versova' project under the TEE Foundation, includes a Sanitary Pad Bank, which distributes sanitary pads to girls, teachers, and female staff in various BMC schools. Her commitment has played a crucial role in making menstrual hygiene accessible to underprivileged communities.
