BJP govt’s various schemes for women
Mr. Modi emphasized that he was the first Prime Minister to address numerous women-related issues, such as inadequate sanitation facilities, access to sanitary pads, the harmful effects of traditional kitchen fuels like wood and coal, and the necessity of bank accounts, during his speeches from the Red Fort on Independence Day. He mentioned facing ridicule and insults from political opponents for bringing up these topics.
He emphasized that his observations of life at home, in his neighborhood, and in villages during his travels influenced his understanding and initiatives for the betterment of women.
Mr. Modi mentioned that more than Rs. 8 trillion has been distributed among women through various government schemes. He also noted that over 10 million women have become ‘Lakhpati Didis’ until now.
The prime minister expressed that he has observed how even a small assistance to women can empower them to support others. He remarked that politicians who prioritize their own families over societal welfare may fail to comprehend this notion.
During the ‘Sashakt Nari-Viksit Bharat’ event, Mr. Modi distributed approximately ₹8,000 crore in bank loans to self-help groups (SHGs). He engaged with women beneficiaries from diverse regions, discussing various facets of their work, and commended their dedication and perseverance.
