Women-led development journey under PM Modi's leadership transforming India: Uttarakhand CM Dhami

Uttarakhand CM Dhami highlights PM Modi's transformative initiatives empowering women across multiple sectors over 11 years

"Today, India's daughters are not just dreamers, but achievers - Pushkar Singh Dhami"

Dehradun, June 8

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Sunday said that the State is celebrating 11YearsOfSashaktNari--a transformative journey that has empowered crores of daughters, sisters, and mothers across the country, elevating them to new heights of self-confidence, self-reliance, and leadership.

He added that this progress is the result of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visionary leadership and effective governance, which not only aims to empower Nari Shakti but also recognizes it as a central pillar of nation-building, according to a CMO statement..

Highlighting various flagship initiatives of the Central government over the last 11 years, Dhami said that from Beti Bachao-Beti Padhao, Ujjwala Yojana, Jan Dhan Yojana, Nari Shakti Vandan Act, providing pucca houses to women, Lakhpati Didi Yojana, Namo Drone Didi, Stand Up India, Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana, Matritva Vandana Yojana to the appointment of women in military services, increasing participation of women in every field and political representation - in these 11 years, women have got respect, opportunity and rights on every front.

"Today, India's daughters are not just dreamers, but achievers. They are flying in the sky, guarding the borders, making strides in science and playing pivotal roles in democratic leadership," Dhami said.

The Chief Minister said that this change was possible not only by schemes but by the faith of a public leader who believes that India will develop only when the daughters of the country are empowered.

"This is not empowerment but the dedication of the Prime Minister to take forward half of India's population and put them on the front line of nation-building," he added.

In a separate incident, earlier today, Dhami said that the state government is committed to the preservation and promotion of literature and culture. He said the government has initiated steps to honour eminent litterateurs through the 'Uttarakhand Sahitya Gaurav Samman' and is providing grants under the 'Financial Assistance Scheme for Publication of Books in Various Languages'.

Addressing the Dera Kavi Sammelan organised by QUA at the Himalayan Cultural Centre in Garhi Cantt, Dehradun, CM Dhami said, "Our government is also working to honour outstanding litterateurs of the state with 'Sahitya Bhushan' and 'Lifetime Achievement' awards.

As a woman entrepreneur from Dehradun, I've personally benefited from Stand Up India loans. My handicraft business now employs 12 women. This is real empowerment, not just words. But we need more awareness about these schemes in rural areas. #WomenPower

While the schemes are good, implementation needs improvement. My sister in a Uttarakhand village still waits for Ujjwala gas connection after 6 months of applying. Government should focus on ground realities too, not just announcements.

Namo Drone Didi is revolutionary! 🚁 My cousin in Rudraprayag is training to become one. Never imagined village women would operate drones for farming. Proud moment for all of us. Hope more such innovative schemes come.

Good to see Uttarakhand celebrating women empowerment. But what about safety? As a father of two daughters, I want to see more concrete actions against crimes against women. Schemes alone won't solve this.

The Sahitya Gaurav Samman is much needed! As a Garhwali poetess, I'm thrilled our culture is being preserved. Women's empowerment must include preserving our linguistic heritage too. Kudos for this balanced approach!

While women in forces is commendable, what about equal pay? My daughter is an army doctor and still faces pay disparity. Empowerment should mean complete equality in all aspects. The journey has begun but miles to go!
