Budget To Boost Women's Participation In The Workforce

"The allocation of Rs. 3 lakh crore for women's development is a landmark decision that will significantly boost women's participation in the workforce. Establishing hostels and promoting women-specific skilling programs through a new centrally sponsored scheme is a forward-thinking initiative. Additionally, the rebate on properties purchased by women with lower stamp duties will encourage more women to invest in real estate. These measures not only provide essential support and opportunities for women but also pave the way for a more inclusive and progressive workforce." - Amrita Gupta, Director of Manglam Group and Founder President of CREDAI Rajasthan Women's Wing
