However, this has not impressed some non-government organisations focused on social welfare, who said freebies and "stuffing money" into the pocket will not do much for women empowerment.바카라 웹사이트Given that women lack financial independence because of "all the unpaid work that they do", it seems justified to give them social assistance of Rs 2000 as promised by the Congress party but the rush to announce freebies by all political parties seems to expose their lack of ideas on how to create mass-based productive employment, the Executive Trustee of Civic-Bangalore, Kathyayini Chamaraj said.바카라 웹사이트
