New Delhi: On International Women’s day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday bought products from various women self-help groups and entrepreneurs.
He also appealed to people to encourage entrepreneurship among women as they will serve as important building blocks in the creation of AtmaNirbhar Bharat.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been rooting for self-reliant India, in the wake of global pandemic and economic restraints that it brought along. His repeated appeal for making every Indian especially women, a contributor to India growth story, has been lauded and well-received.
PM calls for giving fillip to women entrepreneurship:
Women are playing a leading role in India’s quest to become Aatmanirbhar. On International Women’s Day, let us commit to encouraging entrepreneurship among women.
Today, I bought a few products that celebrate women enterprise, creativity and India’s culture. #NariShakti
