mp-cm-welcomes-pm-modi-in-bhopal-on-ahilyabai-s-birth-anniversary

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his proposed visit to the state capital Bhopal on Saturday on the occasion of the 300th birth anniversary of Devi Ahilyabai Holkar.

 

Reports suggest that PM Modi will address the 'Women Empowerment Maha Sammelan' programme, where women's requirements will be given prominence. Around 2 lakh women will participate in the programme from across the state that will be held at Jamboree Ground in the city on May 31. 

 

CM Yadav said, "Tomorrow is Devi Ahilyabai Holkar's birth anniversary, and I welcome PM Narenda Modi to the state on this occasion. There has not been such a big programme centred on women in the state so far. I extend my greetings to women, and I would also like to invite people from the tribal community so that they can learn from the life of Devi Ahilyabai. Madhya Pradesh's tribal history is rich, be it Rani Durgavati, Rani Avantibai or Rani Ahilyabai; they have all given a new direction to Madhya Pradesh and made society proud by showing pride in women."

He, further, explained that the PM's programme that is centred on women has been designed in a manner that only women will look after all the arrangements and manage everything at the event.

 

"The programme has been designed such that everything will be managed by our sisters. As a result of this, it will be an amazing programme and such a programme has not been done yet. Along with safety, women pilots will fly planes if needed, all the management and security systems will be monitored by our sisters. Today, a women's bike rally was also held here. Our culture is women-oriented, we are the only country across the globe that says 'Bharat Mata ki Jai. It is equivalent to respect for the matriarchy. It is our glorious culture and I salute it." Additionally, the Chief Minister wished that the almighty protect the culture from the evil eye and extended greetings that women should continuously move ahead in their lives in the state.
