The vocational training centrwill have 40 sewing machines, furniture, mats and other administrative stores. This noble gesture will help in empowering the women and also providing more financial independence and security to them.
The vocational training centre inaugurated today is a milestone achievement in the upliftment of the socio-economic status of the women populace in the state of J&K. The people of Goha wholeheartedly supported the Army’s venture and are grateful for such acts of kindness which has helped achieve normalcy in the state.
