Ahead of April 16 Parliamentary Debate, Chief Minister Urges MPs, MLAs and Women\u2019s Organisations to Champion Swift Implementation of Nari Shakti Vandan Act<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raipur, April 14, 2026\/ Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai has called for unified and proactive efforts to ensure the effective and time-bound implementation of the Nari Shakti Vandan Act.<\/em> Chief Minister has written letter to all the Members of Parliament, Members of the Legislative Assembly, and women\u2019s organisations across Chhattisgarh, urging them to play a decisive role in the process. Describing the proposed parliamentary discussion on April 16, 2026, as a crucial moment in India\u2019s democratic evolution, he termed it a historic opportunity to secure rightful representation for women in governance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his letter to Members of Parliament, Chief Minister Shri Sai emphasised that the upcoming debate represents a significant milestone in the country\u2019s democratic journey. He recalled that the Act\u2019s unanimous passage by Parliament in 2023 reflected a rare and powerful consensus on advancing women\u2019s empowerment. He urged MPs to take a constructive and forward-looking approach to ensure its implementation well before the 2029 Lok Sabha and Assembly elections, so that women may assume their due place in decision-making institutions without delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing MLAs in the State, Shri Sai noted that the moment has arrived to translate intent into action by guaranteeing women their rightful space in governance. He highlighted that empowerment led by \u2018Matrishakti\u2019 is central to achieving balanced and sustainable development. Calling upon MLAs to lend strength to Chhattisgarh\u2019s voice in favour of women\u2019s reservation, he encouraged their active participation in deliberations and their role in fostering a supportive and progressive discourse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his outreach to women\u2019s organisations, the Chief Minister acknowledged their sustained commitment and invaluable contributions to social transformation. He observed that their consistent efforts have laid a robust foundation for advancing gender equity. The April 16 discussion, he noted, transcends legislative procedure, representing a defining national endeavour to empower half the population with dignity and rightful participation, while deepening the inclusiveness and sensitivity of democratic institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highlighting a symbolic convergence, Shri Sai pointed out that the forthcoming debate coincides with the celebration of \u2018Mahtari Gaurav Varsh\u2019 in Chhattisgarh. He reiterated that the state has long been at the forefront of women\u2019s empowerment, as evidenced by the notable presence of women in the State Assembly. Progressive measures such as 50 per cent reservation for women in local bodies, along with flagship initiatives like \u2018Mahtari Vandan Yojana\u2019 and \u2018Rani Durgavati Yojana\u2019, have already delivered visible and encouraging outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chief Minister urged women\u2019s organisations to raise a clear, collective and confident voice from their respective platforms in support of this historic initiative, thereby helping build a favourable nationwide climate for women\u2019s reservation. He emphasised that women\u2019s groups are not merely observers of this transformation but vital architects of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calling upon all public representatives and stakeholders to stand united, Shri Sai appealed for the creation of a constructive and enabling environment in support of women\u2019s reservation, alongside active engagement in the parliamentary discourse. He expressed firm confidence that with shared commitment and collective resolve, this initiative will mark the beginning of a new chapter in strengthening India\u2019s democratic fabric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
