Dhami said there should be no politics when it comes to empowering women, who are now taking on leadership roles. “Recognising the strength of women, PM Narendra Modi introduced the Nari Shakti Vandan Act in 2023… The PM had called for cooperation from all parties and citizens to implement this,” he said, adding that the Opposition prevented the Bill from being implemented.
