On March 8, marking International Women’s Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to take a unique step in honouring India’s women achievers.

For a day, he will hand over his social media accounts to inspiring women nationwide.

These women, who have made a mark in diverse fields, will share their experiences, struggles, and achievements.

In his Mann Ki Baat address, Modi said that the platform might be his, but the stories would belong to women achievers.

He invited women to participate through a special forum on the NaMo App, giving them a chance to inspire millions.

Recalling history, Modi highlighted the contributions of Hansa Mehta, who played a crucial role in shaping the Indian national flag and advocating for women’s rights.

He emphasized that women have always been at the forefront of India’s progress, from freedom struggles to modern innovations.

Today, women continue to lead in politics, science, sports, business, and social work, proving that their strength is a key driver of India’s success.

Women are making remarkable strides in science and technology. Modi encouraged young girls to participate in an initiative called ‘One Day as a Scientist.

He urged them to visit research labs, planetariums, and space centres, highlighting that women are making remarkable strides in science and technology.

He celebrated India’s space achievements, where women scientists played key roles in missions like Chandrayaan and Mangalyaan.

Women are also making an impact in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Modi shared the story of Thodasam Kailash, a teacher from Adilabad, Telangana, who used AI to compose a song in the Kolami tribal language, helping to preserve India’s linguistic heritage.

He emphasized that AI offers new opportunities for women in education, entrepreneurship, and research.

Promoting health and fitness, Modi played messages from Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra and boxer Nikhat Zareen, encouraging people to reduce oil consumption by 10% to combat obesity.

He also appreciated women athletes for their outstanding performances in the National Games in Uttarakhand.

As students prepare for board exams, Modi advised young girls to appear without stress and with confidence.

He emphasized the success of Pariksha Pe Charcha, which helps students overcome exam-related fears.

By dedicating Women’s Day to India’s Nari Shakti, Modi aims to inspire a new generation of women leaders.

Their stories of resilience and success will not only celebrate their achievements but also motivate millions of young girls to dream big and shape the future of India.
