Not just in cities, women held meetings in rural areas across several states with police departments, with Social Welfare and Health Departments and with their elected representatives to raise the challenges faced by women and girls. In Uttar Pradesh, across 50 districts, women organised more than 7,000 meetings to talk about various issues, including biases and barriers that exist for women and girls that in turn prevent them from pursuing their dreams. In Uttarakhand, women’s collectives from five districts shared demands emerging from among community women with the concerned government officials. A campaign on social security titled ‘Sarkari Yojna, Samajik Suraksha, Sab Haq Hamara’ was launched across several districts of Delhi NCR, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Punjab to support women’s access to social security. In Dabhoi in Vadodara, Gujarat, 170 women agricultural labourers and labourers at risk of becoming bonded came together for a meeting focusing on minimum wages and safety at workplace. The programme also saw the participation of representatives from Nari Adalat, Police Suraksha Setu, 181 Abhayam Helpline and Kanuni Salah Kendra. Participants submitted a list of suggestions to the concerned DM, SDM and Labour Commissioner. In Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh, 50 unorganised women workers held an interface meeting with the officials of Mission for Elimination of Poverty in Municipal Areas (MEPMA). These were women undergoing a tailoring training programme. During the meet, MEPMA officials spoke about loans and other beneficial schemes that could support the livelihoods of women workers.
