Revolutionary policies unveiled in past 10 yrs to empower women: PM

NEW DELHI/KARNAL: Women empowerment is on the government's topmost agenda and started with the construction of 120 million toilets since 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Monday while launching a stipendiary scheme to train 200,000 women insurance agents earning a regular monthly sum totaling to ₹2.16 lakh per person in three years.

Revolutionary policies unveiled for empowerment of rural women and decisions taken for them in the last one decade are matters for academic research, the Prime Minister said at a public gathering in Panipat after launching the scheme. This was Modi's first public appearance in Haryana after the BJP formed the government for a third term in October this year.

Taking popular names of his government's scheme to uplift lives of poor women, he said: "Bima sakhi, bank sakhi, krishi sakhi, pashu sakhi, drone didi, lakhpati didi may sound very simple and ordinary, but they are transforming the fate of India," he said.
