Himachal Haat to Empower Rural Women SHGs and Promote Local Products

Himachal Haat to Empower Rural Women SHGs and Promote Local Products

In Himachal Pradesh, leaders are building a new market called 'Himachal Haat' in Shimla.

This special market will be like a big store where people can buy real Himachali crafts, food, and other local items.

It's being built to help women in villages, especially those in groups called SHGs, sell their creations.

This will help them earn more money and feel more independent.

The market will have about 24 shops for these groups.

The Chief Minister mentioned that these women have already earned a good amount of money from selling their products, and he wants to help them earn even more.

They are also giving food vans to some groups to help them make money.

This Haat is part of a bigger plan to make the state stronger and help people who live in the villages.
