Beti Bachao Beti Padhao -A decade of walking the talk.Save the Girl Child and Educate her.It was launched in 22nd January 2015 by Government of India.Today marks a decade of making the girl child become the symbol of change in India.
It’s not easy.There’s still a lot to achieve. But a few of our favourite schemes have helped this project of GOI become a beacon of hope.
Sukanya Samriddhi
Sainik School for women
Kanyashree by the Government of West Bengal
Swach Bharat
Women entrepreneur support. All aim to help women do more .
Mandatory Maternity leave.
Ujjala scheme
Support from the womb and the life beyond is a big responsibility.The Government is doing it’s part ,as a society we must do ours.The RG Kar doctor’s death is the point we must remember which needs work.Not only we need to train girls in self defence but also make workplaces safer and help raise sons who understand the value of supporting and strengthening their women partner.
Weed out the predators and evil amongst humans and women will rise higher.Saving the girl child is a good start.Now make them unstoppable warriors like Maa Durga.
