"I've been doing social work for a long time and I'll continue to do so. I'm so happy with my success after I abortively fought for three consecutive terms. This is the true verdict given by the people of Patsoi after recognizing my unrelenting work for the betterment of society," said Mirabai (51).
"Being a legislator, my priority is to emphasize women empowerment," she added. She said women in the state play a pivotal role to safeguard society and enhance economy.
