On International Women’s Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi once again brought good news for homemakers by announcing a reduction of Rs 100 in the price of domestic gas cylinders (14.2 kg), benefiting numerous families across the nation. This move comes as part of his ongoing efforts to empower women economically.

Prime Minister Modi also recently tweeted about the Lakhpati Didi scheme. In his post on X, he said, “Didi Yojana is becoming a major medium to empower women across the country. Our mothers, sisters, and daughters associated with self-help groups are a strong link in building a developed India.”
Prime Minister Modi took to his social media account and said, ” PM Swanidhi Yojana has brought new happiness in the lives of even the poorest of the workers. A large number of our mothers and sisters are also included in these.”
