A discussion is being held with the sarpanch, sportsperson, police officer, doctor, Ladli Lakshmi's daughter and the students. Various schemes have been implemented in Madhya Pradesh for the empowerment of daughters and sisters. Society cannot progress without daughters. The daughters have done many innovative works and their cooperation has been received in implementing the plans.""This gives a message to society about how important daughters are. On one hand, sisters have come to over 50 per cent places in the local bodies and on other hand their recruitment in the police is making the task of women empowerment easier. They are also performing their duties better in the posts of teachers. Self-help groups of sisters are doing good work. Food processing work is in progress. Sisters are doing work like manufacturing toys, preparation of uniforms, recovery of electricity bills, and operating of tap water scheme. They are also coming forward in the field of processing of paddy and wheat," Chouhan said.Women often require to take leave from their workplaces under certain circumstances. Provision was made for an additional 7 days' leave. It is our duty that there should be such a system that women do not have to be helpless. They should become strong instead of weak. This society is indebted to the mothers and sisters. They create the universe. Their debt can be repaid by the implementation of such schemes, the CM added.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
