Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar:
If the woman of the house, who works for the family from early morning, becomes economically empowered, the entire family will develop. For that, a model should be developed in which women doing household work can work between 12 to 5, appealed higher and technical education minister Chandrakant Patil. He also urged initiatives like DIPEX to take the lead in this regard.
The bhumipoojan ceremony of the state-level ‘DIPEX-2026’, jointly organised by Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad and Srujan, was held at the hands of Chandrakant Patil at the premises of MIT College on Saturday.

After the inauguration, minister Patil said, “Obtaining only a degree is not the final aim of education, but research, innovation and finding technology-based solutions to problems is the need of the time. Students in the state have immense potential. Such exhibitions provide direction to their ideas, a platform and connection with the industry sector. At the government level, we are committed to encouraging innovation and skill-based education.” Minister Atul Save also expressed his views.
