Mission Shakti
The Uttar Pradesh Government has recently initiated a 6-month Women's Empowerment Initiative 'Mission Shakti'.
The project aims to increase awareness and counter crime against women in the state.
The six-month campaign has two phases — Mission Shakti and 'Operation Shakti'.
Key Highlights:
Mission Shakti: Under this, awareness campaigns such as gender-based sensitization, training, corporate activity, interviews, voice messages, programmes in Durga Puja and other cultural pandals will be organised.
Operation Shakti: Under this, the police will prepare a register of persons who have served jail terms for crimes against women and now have come out, and accordingly, surveillance will be done based on information.
