Odisha Congress Launches ‘Nari Nyay’ Initiative for Women's Rights
The Odisha Congress has started a new program called 'Nari Nyay' to help women who have been hurt or treated unfairly.
It's their response to the government's 'Shaktishree' program.
Nari Nyay will help women report problems like violence and get help.
They've set up a special center where women can file complaints and get assistance.
The goal is to make sure women feel safe and supported.
The other program, Shaktishree, is a government effort focusing on the health and well-being of female students in colleges.
Odisha Congress launched 'Nari Nyay' to counter the government's 'Shaktishree' initiative.
Nari Nyay is a women-centric initiative addressing violence against women and ensuring justice.
A 24x7 Women’s Grievance Redressal Cell was inaugurated at the Congress Bhawan.
