"From the beginning, all the information like where the form can be found, where they will have to go, how to do the documentation work, how the women can take the advantage of the scheme or how they can get that benefit, will be provided by our workers," BJP Source added.
"Training will be provided to BJP workers about the scheme at the local, district level," the source added. Apart from this, women who work for the welfare of society can also take training and can serve society through Kamal Mitra.

"BJP does not work only for elections, but always remains connected with the society and works for the benefit of the society. That is why the party has started different programs. Prime Minister Narendra Modi always talks about the empowerment of women, saying that women should advance in every field.
