The CM further highlighted that such measures are a testament to his government’s efforts to address the needs of gender minorities and ensure their active participation in society. He reaffirmed his administration's dedication to supporting all sections of society requiring governmental backing, regardless of their background.
The Grihalaxmi policy, initially focused on women’s empowerment, was recently expanded to include members of the third-gender community, signaling a progressive step towards inclusivity and equality. This initiative aligns with the government’s broader agenda of fostering a more equitable society.
The recognition of Pranati Prakash’s remarks and the policy’s extension underscores the government’s resolve to bridge social gaps and promote dignity for all.
