Galentine’s Day, marks the celebration of female friendship. The term was popularised after the release of a 2010 episode of US sitcom Parks and Recreation. This term is being used extensively nowadays as many women are using it to mark a moment they have with other women, including close friends, colleagues, family members and the typical girl-gang groups who like to show-off their friendship on social media.

This time around Smita Sabharwal -Secretary to the Telangana Chief Minister KCR who is well known in the bureaucratic circles, in a refreshing change has also used the term and shared a photo of her spending quality time with close friends on her Twitter handle. Just a day before Valentine's Day the IAS officer shared a picture of her friends captioning it -Galentines with a heart emoji ... what would life be without you title.
