The Union Minister said that PM Modi has given a clarion call that the Atmanirbharta of India can only be achieved by empowering Nari Shakti.
"For this, the government under PM Narendra Modi ji, many revolutionaries initiatives like Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY) and so many others as well as correcting social evils like Triple Talaq, the women power of India are being empowered towards the cause of nation building," Sonowal said.
