Paid Period leaves are the rights of every women and it should be made mandatory in the central level. No one but a Women knows what she went through during Periods. There are many deterrent factors like Period cramps, Period flows, Mood swings and bad thoughts. The persons who have PCOS(Polycystic ovarian syndrome) have next level of pain and prolonged flows than normal woman. This is a issue that should be addressed in every state and center level. There are some laws already there in some of our states like in Kerala there is 6 days paid leaves for government students per month, in Bihar we have 2 days paid leave for government employees, in Sikkim we have paid leave for women lawyers and magisters, in Karnataka we have proposal of a law giving 6 paid leaves per year for Government employees. In my sense the periods issue comes under concurrent list so it should be extended from government to private companies providing period leaves to Women Employees and laws related to paid period leaves should be made in central level. We should not take period as a disability but a goodwill towards the Women of the society and the respect towards their service and their sacrifice towards the society should be revered.
