&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Launching the Saakshar Bharat Mission in the capital, Singh also announced that a National Mission for the empowerment of women would be set up soon. &lt;/font&gt;

&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;While the Cabinet has already decided to amend the Constitution to provide 50 per cent reservation to women in panchayats and local bodies, the Self Help Group movement would be &amp;quot;expanded by restructuring and revitalising the Rashtriya Mahila Kosh&amp;quot;, he said. &lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Maintaining that female literacy was a force multiplier for all actions for social development, he said it had been observed that infrastructure development in economic sector and female literacy in social sector were &amp;quot;the two critical factors that impede India&#039;s steady climb to a higher and sustainable level of growth.&amp;quot; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The Mission would be implemented in 1.7 lakh gram panchayats spread over 365 districts which have low female literacy rate as also 33 districts affected by Left-wing extremism.&lt;/font&gt;

&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Noting that low female literacy was impeding growth, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh launched a major initiative in the education sector saying all steps to empower women socially, economically and politically would be taken by the government. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Launching the Saakshar Bharat Mission in the capital, Singh also announced that a National Mission for the empowerment of women would be set up soon. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;While the Cabinet has already decided to amend the Constitution to provide 50 per cent reservation to women in panchayats and local bodies, the Self Help Group movement would be &amp;quot;expanded by restructuring and revitalising the Rashtriya Mahila Kosh&amp;quot;, he said. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Observing that about half of Indian women were still not able to read or write, Singh said &amp;quot;a National Mission for the empowerment of women is being set up.&amp;quot; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Maintaining that female literacy was a force multiplier for all actions for social development, he said it had been observed that infrastructure development in economic sector and female literacy in social sector were &amp;quot;the two critical factors that impede India&#039;s steady climb to a higher and sustainable level of growth.&amp;quot; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal and Minister of State for HRD D Purandeswari were also present at the launch of the &#039;Saakshar Bharat Mission&#039; which aims at making 70 million people, including 60 million women, literate in the next five years. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The Mission would be implemented in 1.7 lakh gram panchayats spread over 365 districts which have low female literacy rate as also 33 districts affected by Left-wing extremism.&lt;/font&gt;

Low female literacy impeding growth: Manmohan

Noting that low female literacy was impeding growth, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh launched a major initiative in the education sector saying all steps to empower women socially, economically and politically would be taken by the government. Launching the Saakshar Bharat Mission in the capital, Singh also announced that a National Mission for the empowerment of women would be set up soon. While the Cabinet has already decided to amend the Constitution to provide 50 per cent reservation to women in panchayats and local bodies, the Self Help Group movement would be "expanded by restructuring and revitalising the Rashtriya Mahila Kosh", he said. Observing that about half of Indian women were still not able to read or write, Singh said "a National Mission for the empowerment of women is being set up." Maintaining that female literacy was a force multiplier for all actions for social development, he said it had been observed that infrastructure development in economic sector and female literacy in social sector were "the two critical factors that impede India's steady climb to a higher and sustainable level of growth." Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal and Minister of State for HRD D Purandeswari were also present at the launch of the 'Saakshar Bharat Mission' which aims at making 70 million people, including 60 million women, literate in the next five years. The Mission would be implemented in 1.7 lakh gram panchayats spread over 365 districts which have low female literacy rate as also 33 districts affected by Left-wing extremism. Read more
