"Women power is no longer just a phrase; it’s the identity of the New India." 🚀

While visiting Srinagar, Jammu & Kashmir, Minister Col. Rajyavardhan Rathore dropped some incredible facts about how women are leading the charge in our democracy.

The Power Move: ⬇️

46% Representation: Did you know that nearly 14.5 lakh women are currently elected representatives in the Panchayati Raj system?

The Shift: It’s not just about local administration anymore. Women are now demanding (and deserving) a seat at the table where Laws and Policies are made.

Why it matters: Under PM @narendramodi, the focus has shifted from "Women Development" to "Women-led Development." From the border to the boardroom, and from panchayats to parliament, the vision is clear: Equal opportunities in every sphere of Law and Policy Making.

Experience Srinagar’s lakes, Gulmarg’s snowy mountains, Pahalgam’s calm valleys and Sonamarg’s charm with our 4N/5D tour package.
