It aimed to disseminate comprehensive information about government-sponsored welfare schemes designed to empower women, strengthen social protection mechanisms, and extend financial support to vulnerable sections of society.
During the session, officials elaborated on several key initiatives focused on womenās empowerment, including programmes related to education, livelihood generation, healthcare support, and rehabilitation services. Detailed insights were also provided on social security measures such as pension schemes for widows, senior citizens, and specially-abled individuals, along with financial assistance programmes for economically weaker sections.
