The requests of the women of Nasau Village in Ra have been answered after a generator was donated to them.
The women had made their request earlier this year to the Assistant Minister for Women Veena Bhatnagar on her visit to the village.
While handing over the generator, Assistant Minister for Women Veena Bhatnagar has stressed the importance of women's empowerment to enhance national development.
She reminded the villagers of the critical role women played in any development ‑ be it institutional, in the community or at the national level.
Bhatnagar also motivated and encouraged the women to engage with Women Interest Officers to further enhance their income generating initiatives and access to services.
She adds that women are being recognized for playing a pivotal role in sustaining livelihood in communities and villages, and if given the opportunity women can achieve anything be it economic, social or in the political field.
The donation would benefit not only the women's group but the Nasau Village as a whole.
