PM Narendra Modi's assertion that "women-led development is needed for the all-round development of the country" is increasingly visible in India's startup sector, including in Bihar.
PM Narendra Modi's assertion that "women-led development is needed for the all-round development of the country" is increasingly visible in India's startup sector, including in Bihar. Women lead approximately 76,000 of the country's over 1.7 lakh startups.
Union MoS for Science & Technology and PMO, Jitendra Singh, highlighted this achievement on Saturday, stating that "a large number of the women-led startups are from Tier 2 and Tier 3 towns". He said the country's startups are generating over 17 lakh jobs.
"These are not just urban phenomena—Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, including smaller towns in Bihar, are emerging as hotbeds of women-led innovation. This silent revolution is rewriting India's future, led by first-generation women entrepreneurs, researchers, and policy-makers," Dr Singh said.
