Why This Medical Shop Signboard, Spotted In Ludhiana, Is Viral

On Friday morning, a Twitter user shared a picture of a signboard that has won hearts of Twitter and quickly gone viral on the microblogging platform. The picture shows a signboard that many have labelled "amazing" and "lovely". Spotted in Ludhiana, the sign outside a medical shop in the city of Punjab proudly proclaims that the business is in association with "Gupta and Daughters" - a departure from the common practice opening businesses in the names of sons. 

Dr Aman Kashyap, who shared the photograph on the microblogging platform, applauded the signboard and the owner of the shop in his post for defying gender stereotypes. 

"Unlike all the shops opened in the name of sons, a medicine shop in association with 'Gupta & Daughters' spotted in Ludhiana," wrote Dr Kashyap while sharing the pic. "Be the change you want to see in this world," he added. 

Take a look at his post below:
