PM Modi birthday live updates: After releasing cheetahs, PM says 'women empowerment need of the hour' at MP's Sheopur
Prime Minister Modi, after releasing at least eight cheetahs in MP's Kuno National Park, addressed a rally of self-help groups in Sheopur. CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan was also present at the rally.
PM Modi said, "On this day, it is generally my endeavor that I go to my mother, touch her feet, and seek blessings. Today I could not go to her, but lakhs of mothers working hard in tribal areas and villages are blessing me here today."
"A huge difference between the India of the last century and the new India of this century has come as a representation of our Nari Shakti. In today's new India, from Panchayat Bhawan to Rashtrapati Bhavan, the flag of women's power is flying. Women all over—mothers and sisters—are my strength and inspiration."
The Indian Premier added, "In the last 8 years, we have helped in every way to empower self-help groups. Today, more than 8 crore women across the country are associated with this campaign. We aim to have at least one sister from every rural household associated with this campaign."
"Our government is working continuously to create new possibilities for women entrepreneurs in the village economy. Through 'One District, One Product' we are trying to take local products from every district to big markets," he continued.
"The month of September is being celebrated as Nutrition Month in the country. With the efforts of India, the United Nations has declared the year 2023 to be celebrated internationally as the year of coarse cereals."
