Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday marked the 10th anniversary of the Beti Bachao Beti Padhao (BBBP) initiative, launched in 2015, in Panipat, Haryana, and said that it has played a role in addressing gender biases and creating an environment that ensures girls have access to education and opportunities.

NEW DELHI:

"Today we mark 10 years of the #BetiBachaoBetiPadhao movement. Over the past decade, it has become a transformative, people-powered initiative and has drawn participation from people across all walks of life," Modi said in a post on X.

The initiative was launched to address declining child sex ratios and related issues of women's empowerment.

"Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the people and various community service organisations, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao has achieved milestones," he said.
