| 'Mission Shakti' for young women launched | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Nov 21: 'Mission Shakti', inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's slogan of 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao', a novel initiative for young womenfolk of the society has announced first of its kind project for young women, who aspire to develop their strength, endurance and want to serve in armed forces but remained shy due to lack of proper common platform.
Mission Shakti aims to inculcate a spirit of warrior, where challenges are welcomed and not taken as bad luck to lament.
Talking about the initiative while addressing a press conference here today, Preeti Choudhary, convener of Mission Shakti and renowned social activist and first female biker of J&K, said that this project will give platform to female aspirants as we are well aware of a rather very thin female participation in armed forces, the aim of this novel initiative is also to train females both physically as well as academics for the upcoming recruitment in Jammu and Kashmir Police. Mission Shakti always tried to encourage fellow women to push their limits, be it in terms of biking, sports and physical fitness. Mission Shakti strongly feels it is time that our girls are given a platform where they can be guided to channelize their energy into their physical and mental strength.
While applauding govt efforts towards women empowerment, she said that there is a urgent need to initiate such programs to bring a behavioral change not just among women, but among the society towards women. These steps will consistently make a huge difference. Convener of Mission Shakti thanked District Administration Jammu especially Deputy Commissioner Jammu and SSP Jammu for providing all necessary logistic and other support as well as words of encouragement for this initiative. Other who were present in the press conference include Arpana Gupta, Shivali Bangotra and Sandeep Manhas. |
