A pilot programme to provide menstrual cups to women was launched here on Thursday. Under the project named “Thinkal”, around 1,500 women in the reproductive age group from economically poor households in 12 localities under the Greater Chennai Corporation’s wards in South Chennai will receive menstrual cups in the next three months.
Durga Stalin, wife of Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, launched the project and distributed menstrual cups to 15 beneficiaries at a function in the city. The ups are provided by ennVee Solutions, a corporate social responsibility initiative of HLL Lifecare.
