How often do you call an electrician and a woman shows up to fix your power supply? Or a policewoman chases all the criminals and saves the day? Have you noticed a middle-aged lady smoothly driving a passenger bus? As we see more and more women achieve great roles in multinationals, there are some career paths which are still considered male-dominated.
Those women who break the stereotypes and carve their way to success in these unconventional fields capture everyone’s heart and give courage to those who are dreaming of similar careers.

With everything just a single touch away, life has become super simple for all of us and we can’t thank technology enough for this. Hundreds of apps are launched every day for mobile and computer users. From ordering pizza to shopping and finding a cab – there is an app for everything. But, one thing noticeable was the male dominance in this sector. Whenever I saw the names of the app creators I barely came across any female names and I was wondering where the women were! But, thanks to a few ladies who broke the trend and designed some awesome apps, I now know they are around and making their presence felt.
Mehvish Mushtaq is one such girl who broke the stereotype and became a successful app designer at the young age of 23. The girl from Kashmir became the first Kashmiri woman to design an android app. Read more about her and her interesting app “Dial Kashmir”
