Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje today said that her government was committed for women empowerment and will make all efforts to make them economically strong.
Addressing a function here, she said that the state government's women empowerment schemes would lead to a wealthier, more educated and prosperous Rajasthan.
Raje also flagged-off a group of 465 women resource persons (Community Resource Persons) to work with the poor women in different parts of Rajasthan and constitute their groups and empower them through different activities, a release said.
The CM, acknowledging shortage of doctors, said that the women self-help group (SHG) members should be given training for treatment at the Primary and Community Health Centres.
"This would enable them to offer primary treatment in the village itself. This way, they would not replace the doctors, but could provide some relief through first-aid," she added.
Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Minister Surendra Goyal, Women and Child Development Minister Anita Bhadel and others were present on the occasion.
