Proud of the moment when women get equal share in India's future: Maneka Gandhi

BJP MP Maneka Gandhi on September 19 said she is proud to be part of the moment when the government will be giving women “an equal share in future of India”. Ms. Gandhi, who has served as Minister for Women and Child Development in the past, talked about the power of the ‘Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao’ slogan of the government, and social schemes like Jan Dhan and Ujjwala Yojana.

“I am proud to be a part of this moment when [the] government, under leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji, has undertaken to repair the deep rooted asymmetry, and to give an equal share in the future of India to all us women,” Ms. Gandhi said at a function held in the Central Hall to commemorate the rich legacy of the Parliament of India.
