Home Minister, Gaikhangam has stated that empowerment of women is in their hands and should not blame men for not delegating power to them.
Speaking as Chief Guest at the commemoration of Jawaharlal Nehru’s 125th birth anniversary today organized by Manipur Pradesh Mahila Congress Committee, the Home Minister said that empowerment does not come from outside, but from within. Power is already given to all including the women but the problem to exercise is with the person.
He also remembered the first Prime Minister of India- Nehru and his contribution during the freedom movement.
