Sir,
This has reference to article “Women empowerment through schemes” by Harihar Swarup. It’s heartening to see that, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has embarked on a path of women-led development, catalyzing a profound transformation in our society.
The Government’s commitment to women’s empowerment is reflected in various initiatives such as Ujjwala Yojana, Swachhata Abhiyan, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, MUDRA Yojana, and the permanent commissioning of women in the Armed Forces. These programs have not only created opportunities but also improved the quality of life for countless women across the country.
The significant representation of women in various sectors, from police personnel to space scientists, showcases their remarkable contributions to our nation’s progress. Female enrollment in higher education, the aviation industry, and even the armed forces has surged, breaking stereotypes and setting inspiring examples for future generations.
The Women’s Reservation Bill, which was passed recently in Parliament is a historic step towards greater gender inclusivity in politics. It will enable more women to participate in the political and governance processes, ensuring their voices are heard and their perspectives considered.
As we look forward to a more inclusive and radiant future, it’s evident that the role of women in India’s growth story is indispensable. They are not just beneficiaries but active contributors shaping our nation’s destiny. Let us continue to support and celebrate the achievements of our Nari Shakti as they propel India towards a brighter tomorrow.
