Today, we celebrate the 75th Republic Day and the parade will take centre stage as a tribute to the achievements of women in India. Vaani Kapoor will lead the 'Naari Ko Samarpit 26th Jan' campaign, a modest initiative dedicated to promoting women empowerment.
The parade will commence with a performance by 100 female musicians and two segments highlighting the contributions of women in the Army, Navy, and Air Force, as well as other military forces.
The actress, commenting on her involvement, said, “I am happy to be associated with this nationwide campaign 'Naari Ko Samarpit 26th Jan'. The Government of India has been focusing on promoting ‘Nari Shakti’ in the country. Women are the bedrock of our society and this campaign aims to recognize and celebrate the immense contribution of women. It highlights that empowering women takes the country closer to all-round progress. I believe women should be empowered so that they can realize their full potential and this initiative highlights the same.”
This emphasis on Nari Shakti builds upon the immense progress made by the government in recent years. Initiatives like the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana for girl child to secure her future, the Ujjwala Yojana for women's safety and give smoke-free kitchen, and a healthy life to women and their families. It also gives free LPG Connection, and the Aayushman Card for universal healthcare access stands as a pillar of support for India's female citizens.
