Govt committed to women's empowerment: UP CM

Lucknow, Nov 16 (UNI) Affirming his commitment to women's empowerment, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday said that BJP believes that a country can only progress if the women of that region are educated and enjoy social security.
“Our Government has taken several measures to ensure social security for women - Women Power Line(WPL) 1090 and 181 Women Help line. Besides, anti-Romoe squad has been set up to instill confidence among the women,” Yogi said while addressing a function here on Friday.
He said women are now holding important posts in the government and private sectors. Lok Sabha Speaker, Foreign Minister and Defence Minister of India are women. Girls have performed exceedingly well in the field of sport. This is a welcome sign. But much more is needed to be done. This is possible only if the women get full support from the society. The need of the hour is to bring this positive change in the society, Chief Minister said.
