UP CM launches fourth phase of Mission Shakti in UP
LUCKNOW [Maha Media]: Women are capable of achieving remarkable feats with will power and support from the government, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Saturday while launching the fourth phase of Mission Shakti in Uttar Pradesh.
Adityanath also said a campaign would be launched from October 15 as part of the fourth phase to educate people about government initiatives concerning the protection and well-being of women and girls.
He launched the fourth phase of Mission Shakti, an initiative focused on promoting women's safety and self-reliance, from his official residence by flagging off a women empowerment rally.
The rally, which traversed several locations in the capital, aims to enhance public awareness regarding various government schemes for the welfare of women and daughters, an official release issued here said.
Citing the various government schemes which have helped women , Adityanath emphasised that ''with will power and backing from the government and administration, women have the potential to achieve remarkable feats.'' The chief minister said Uttar Pradesh being the most populous state in India, special efforts are needed for the welfare of its vast female population, adding that the rally launch in the fourth phase of Mission Shakti underlines this commitment. ''Our government changed people's perception towards women's capabilities,'' the chief minister said, adding that from October 15, the Central and state government's women-centric schemes will receive focused promotion across cities, villages, and municipal bodies. Stringent measures will be taken against those who endanger the safety and well-being of women and daughters, he added.
