Gujarat becomes first State in the country to start Balika Panchayat | Daily Current Affairs Dose

Gujarat is the first state in the country to launch Balika Panchayat. Presently, the girls participating in the Panchayat elections, not only vote for their own leader, they participate in electioneering, highlighting their aspirations and needs clearly.

For sure, present empowered girls as future women will lead to women-led development not only at grassroots level, but also in nation building.

Establishment of Balika Panchayat has strengthened girl power in Gujarat. It’s a replicable model for other states where child marriage is prevalent or girls education is on the decline.(inp:newsOnair)
