New avenues have opened for ‘nari shakti’, says PM
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the NDA government’s efforts over the last 12 years have created an environment where women can realise their full potential and contribute more to nation-building. The Prime Minister said new avenues for India’s "nari shakti" have opened up as his government focused on providing "dignity, opportunity and empowerment".
In a series of posts on X, Modi stated that his government's efforts to encourage women-led development are visible across sectors, as women are playing a prominent role across diverse fields — from financial inclusion and entrepreneurship to education, healthcare, sanitation, housing, sports, science, and governance.
The Prime Minister noted that he is particularly happy to see India’s nari shakti make a mark in sectors like science, space and innovation. He highlighted that their growing participation in emerging fields such as drone technology is opening new avenues of opportunity and transforming the development landscape across the nation.
Modi shared that the government is actively supporting self-help groups, which are going a long way in making women financially independent.
Sharing a "Sanskrit Subhashitam", Modi stated that India's nari shakti is the cornerstone of nation building. “Today, our mothers, sisters, and daughters are increasing the pride of Maa Bharati with their amazing talent and skills in every field,” he observed.
