He also outlined the NABARD’s diverse women-centric programmes designed to enhance financial inclusion and economic empowerment.<\/p>\n The programme was attended also by KVK Head Dr Hage Munth, PC Tiwari, Risso Maya, Bengia Menia, SHG members, and women farmers associated with NABARD-supported tribal development projects in Yazali.<\/p>\n Dr Munth underscored the importance of empowering rural women through education, skill development and social protection, and urged them to participate in leadership roles. She reassured the women farmers present that “KVK Yachuli remains committed to supporting you with guidance on innovative agricultural practices.”<\/p>\n Tiwari in his address commended the role played by women in the development of the state, and encouraged them to continue contributing to the state’s social and economic progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" YAZALI, 4 Mar: International Women’s Day (IWD) was celebrated with great enthusiasm at Chullyu village here in Keyi Panyor district on Tuesday, with the theme ‘March forward: From promises to progress’.
