Minister for Animal Husbandry and Dairy Development J. Chinchu Rani on Tuesday said women should attain the capability to defend themselves against increasing violence, injustice, and gender inequality.
Women are not safe anywhere today. Female foeticide and persecution of women are on the rise. There is no equal justice or pay parity. Even their democratic rights are denied. Women are facing such ignominy in all spheres in the country, and intense struggles are needed to gain their rights, Ms. Chinchu Rani said. She was inaugurating the State women’s convention organised by the All India Youth Federation here.
