ITANAGAR, Jan 25:<\/strong> Governor BD Mishra has urged the Arunachal Pradesh State Commission for Women (APSCW) to “rise to the need and aspirations of every girl child of the state” by being vigilant and proactive in addressing issues of atrocities against girls and women.
\nHe said this during a meeting with a delegation of the APSCW which had called on him at Raj Bhavan here on Friday.
\nThe delegation, which was led by APSCW chairperson Radhilu Chai Techi, submitted a memorandum to the governor regarding various issues pertaining to the commission.
\nEmphasizing on women’s education and health, Mishra suggested to the commission to undertake an extensive tour of the state to ensure that every girl child aged six years and above goes to school.
\n“The future of Arunachalee society lies on constitutional bodies like the women’s commission; therefore, the onus is on the members of the commission to rise to the need and aspirations of every girl child of the state,” he said.
\nStating that Arunachalee women must be secure at home and outside, Mishra said “they should be fully empowered to access all their rights and dignity, and be given opportunity to contribute in equal measure in all walks of life.”
\nHe advised the APSCW to explore suitable measures and effective enforcement of laws to secure the safety, rights and entitlements of women in the society.
\nAmong others, APSCW Vice Chairperson Heyomai Towsik, members Hoksum Ori, Likha Joya and Techi Hunmai, and Member Secretary Yame Higio were present at the meeting.
\nThe APSCW delegation later called on Women & Child Development (WCD) Minister Nabam Rebia, and submitted a memorandum highlighting issues such as the requirement of a permanent APSCW office, and creation of regular posts for the office.
\nFurther, stating that the APSCW is dependent on grants-in-aid from the state government, which are routed through the WCD department, the team requested for an independent plan head for the APSCW.
\nRebia assured to look into all the points highlighted in the memorandum as early as possible.<\/p>\n

\nThe NCW suggested to the SCWs to computerize their registration mechanisms, and to frequently interact with the NCW and share information about experiences and good practices.
\nIt also suggested conducting training programmes for all the staffs of the state commissions.
\nThe APSCW team suggested that the NCW immediately take up cases or matters pertaining to central government employees after they have been recommended and forwarded by the SCWs.
