Early Times Report

Poonch, Oct 14: The Indian Army has taken a significant step toward empowering women in the remote Thanamandi area of Poonch, located in the south of the Pir Panjal region, by launching a stitching and tailoring course. This initiative aims to enhance the skills of local women, enabling them to pursue self-employment and improve their economic prospects. The course is designed to provide participants with essential tailoring skills, which can open doors to various employment opportunities or allow them to start their own businesses. The program is just the beginning of a broader effort to promote self-reliance among women in these communities. The response from the community has been overwhelmingly positive, with many local women expressing gratitude for the Indian Army's involvement. They see the course as a vital opportunity to gain independence and financial stability. As one participant noted, acquiring these skills could be transformative, allowing them to create their own businesses or secure employment in the tailoring sector. Local leaders have also welcomed this initiative, emphasizing its potential to contribute to the region's overall development. The tailoring course is part of the Indian Army's larger strategy to foster peace and prosperity in Poonch, a region that has faced numerous challenges in the past. By investing in education and skill development, the Indian Army hopes to strengthen the community and improve the quality of life for its residents. This initiative highlights the critical importance of women's empowerment in rural areas, where traditional gender roles often limit economic participation. By equipping women with practical skills, the Indian Army not only uplifts individuals but also contributes to the social and economic development of the entire community.
