JAMMU, May 13: Zero percent stamp duty will go a long way to empower women, this was stated by BJP State Mahila Morcha president, Purnima Sharma while addressing a press conference at party State Headquarter, Trikuta Nagar near here, today along with Morcha State general secretary, Sanjita Dogra.
Purnima Sharma said that zero percent stamp duty for the ladies in the properties getting registered on their names, recently enforced in the State is a very welcome step, which will go a long way to empower women on the ground level.
Sharma said that, this will enhance the personal safety and security of ladies in the society. She said that if in any case any woman is ousted from her home due to any reason, her trauma will be much less than it used to be as the building will legally belong to her. She said that our society always remained male dominated in every sphere and this law will surely enhance their position in the society giving an edge to them by having immovable assets on their names as Purush Pradhan Samaj will now get their properties registered on the names of their spouses, sisters and mothers, she added.
She said Prime Minister, Narendra Modi’s mission for “Mahila Sashaktikaran” is showing results on the ground.
Purnima Sharma said that this law has brought cheers on the faces of poor, who were getting difficulties in getting their properties registered on their name due to lack of money. She said that now the poor families can get their lands or properties registered on the names of women of their families which will also help them to avail various facilities.
