Indira Mahila Shakti Bhavans to boost women's economic empowerment in Telangana: CM

Hyderabad, Oct 7 (UNI) Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday said the newly constructed Indira Mahila Shakti Bhavans across the State would serve as key centres for promoting women's economic independence and entrepreneurship.
In a post on 'X', Reddy said the district-wise buildings, which are ready for inauguration, would provide women self-help group members with opportunities ranging from skill training and employment to product manufacturing and marketing.
He said the centres would bring various facilities onto a single platform to help women transform into entrepreneurs and gain access to wider markets, including global markets.
