Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Wednesday that Mission Shakti campaign has not only been successful in realising objectives like women safety, self-reliance and empowerment but also has been recognised nationwide. The mission, he claimed is serving as an example for the other states.
Flagging off the ‘Mahila Sashaktikaran’ rally marking the onset of Navratri in Balrampur, the CM said, “I offer my obeisance to the Goddess on the beginning of the auspicious festival of Navratri. Devipatan Shaktipeeth has its own greatness. The devotees come here from far-off places during Navratri to worship the deity.”
