The government's focus on women's empowerment

Namo Drone Didi and Lakhpati Didi Scheme are schemes of the Government of India to promote women empowerment and the Modi government at the Center has a strong focus on women empowerment. The objective of these schemes is to empower women economically. Under the Namo Drone Didi scheme, women in rural areas of India are being trained to fly drones, due to which women are becoming drone pilots for use in farming activities. Today, PM Modi will also honor those lakhpati didis who have become financially empowered with the support of Deendayal Upadhyaya Antyodaya Yojana.

 

8 thousand crore rupees will be distributed to self-help groups

PM Modi will also allocate about Rs 10 thousand crore to self-help groups today. This amount will be given to self-help groups by the government in the form of bank linkage camps and capitalization assistance at low-interest rates under subsidy. The government plans to provide drones to 15 thousand self-help groups in the country, with the help of which women can do crop reviews, pesticide spraying, and seed planting in rural areas.
