Women play a major role in managing the family, earning livelihood and grooming the future generation. Women empowerment has been initiated through drudgery reduction, gender sensitization and capacity building. Activities like safe drinking water, primary health care, hygiene and sanitation and skill-oriented training are being promoted. Gender sensitization is being initiated to ensure that women are treated well and given equal opportunities to get their due status in society. Subsequently, they are encouraged to form Self Help Groups to come up with individual and group enterprises to generate income opportunities apart from contributing to their own agriculture and livestock husbandry.
