During the Nari Shakti Vandan campaign at Baba Gambhir Nath Auditorium, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath accused the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Congress of having a history of being 'anti-women' and failing to empower women. He stated that women's rights are not a charity but an entitlement, stressing the need for real rights and opportunities for women. Adityanath credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the passage of the Women’s Reservation Bill in 2023, claiming that opposition parties had blocked amendments aimed at furthering women's rights. He highlighted that since 2017, over 44,000 women have been recruited into the police force, compared to just 10,000 from 1947 to 2017. Additionally, he noted that his government has provided more than 9 lakh government jobs, including nearly 1.75 lakh to women. Adityanath emphasized women's political participation, stating that 54% of block chiefs in Uttar Pradesh are women. He also criticized opposition parties for using women's issues for political gain without taking concrete actions during their tenure.
