Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has said that he has been striving along with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Deputy Chief Minister K. Pawan Kalyan, as partners of the NDA, for the advancement of women.
Focus was on strengthening the MEPMA and DWCRA groups, keeping in view their significant contribution to the State’s economic growth, Mr. Naidu said while participating in the International Women’s Day (IWD) celebrations, near the State Secretariat, in Guntur district on Sunday.
Mr. Naidu said the theme for this year’s IWD was ‘Accelerate Action: Rights, Justice, and Action’, and it reflected the State and the Central governments’ commitment to improving the lot of women.
He noted that the State government had three women Ministers and they were going trailblazing work in their respective areas.
The fact that Droupadi Murmu, a tribal woman, had been made President showed that the BJP-led NDA government would not merely speak for the sake of rhetoric but keep its promises related to the marginalised sections.
