YB News Rajouri, Nov 23 As part of Indian Army’s ongoing “Women Empowerment” impetus, the Girls of remote areas of Budhal in District Rajouri (J&K) were imparted training on self defence. Self defence training will improve self confidence in them. The training programme will get a healthy and fit life style due to exercise and physcial moves. It is important to educate girl children to develop all around personality. Prevailing myths about gender based violence, attitude and behavior needs to be transformed in society. Apart from physical training, verbal, psychological and emotional skills were integrated with critical gender consciousness awareness. The friendly women coaches imparted self defence lessons. Friends and family should motivate the girls to develop self confidence with self defence training. This in turn will make our society more mature and responsible. A total number of 40 girls attended the event. The local populace, girls and women lauded the efforts of Indian Army and expressed their gratitude for organising such a workshop.
