										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Visakhapatnam: 20<sup>th</sup> March, 2026:</strong>  Adani Gangavaram Port marked a community celebration held at the <b>Multiple Sports Ground, Dibbapalem</b>, under its <b>CSR program</b> focused on women empowerment. The event was <b>inaugurated by Shri Kameshwar Rao, CI, New Port Police Station, Pedagantyada</b> in the presence of senior management of Adani Gangavaram Port Limited along with the women community beneficiaries.</p>
<p>The program featured <b>motivational addresses</b>, <b>engaging games for women</b>, and a <b>prize distribution ceremony</b> that recognized outstanding participants and entrepreneurs. The atmosphere was inclusive, encouraging, and focused on <b>dignity, opportunity, and self-reliance</b>.</p>
<p><b>Empowering Women Through Sustainable Livelihoods</b></p>
<p>Adani Gangavaram Port launched its <b>Self‑Sustainability Initiative</b> in <b>2022</b> to help women gain <b>skills, income, and confidence</b>. Since then, the initiative has nurtured <b>25 women‑run shops</b>, enabling participants—many of whom earlier had no earnings—to now make around <b>₹</b><b>7,000 per month</b> while managing their businesses with pride.</p>
<p><b>Scaling: 25 New Shops Announced</b></p>
<p>Building on this progress, the port announced the establishment of <b>25 additional women-led shops</b>, taking the total to <b>50 micro‑enterprises</b>. This expansion deepens the port’s commitment to <b>inclusive growth</b>, <b>local entrepreneurship</b>, and <b>steady household income</b> for women from underserved communities.</p>
<p>As part of the program’s next phase, the CSR initiative will bring all women made products under a unified company level brand and create a dedicated marketplace. This combined platform will help:</p>
<p>·        Increase <b>visibility and sales</b></p>
<p>·        Improve <b>customer access and reach</b></p>
<p>·        <b>Strengthen the brand identity</b> of locally made products</p>
<p>·        <b>Promote entrepreneurship and skill based growth</b></p>
<p>·        Support <b>long term self reliance and sustainable income</b> for women</p>
<p><b>Speaking on the occasion Adani Gangavaram <wbr />Port Limited management said,</b> the women empowerment is a<b> long-term commitment—not a one‑day agenda</b>, appreciating the <b>courage, resilience, and hard work</b> of all participating women and reaffirmed support through skill development, business guidance, and market linkages.</p>
<p>Further stated, “Our goal is simple—create real opportunities that lead to real income and real confidence. We are proud to see women move from zero earnings to stable livelihoods and leadership within their communities.”</p>
<p>“Guided by <b>the vision and leadership of Dr. Priti Adani, Chairperson – Adani Foundation</b>, AGPL remains committed to empowering women through the three pillars of <b>opportunity, skill, and self‑belief</b>, building <b>a stronger and more self‑reliant community.</b>”</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NEW DELHI.   Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised Chokhone Krichena, popularly known as the ‘Flower Lady of Manipur’, during the latest episode of *Mann Ki Baat*. He highlighted her inspiring journey of combining traditional farming knowledge with a modern entrepreneurial vision to promote floriculture in Manipur’s Senapati district. In 2021, Chokhone founded Dianthe Private Limited, a floriculture enterprise focused on cultivating and marketing decorative flowers, moving beyond her family’s conventional hill farming practices. By collaborating closely with women farmers from the region, she has created sustainable livelihood opportunities and strengthened local communities. Today, flowers grown under her initiative are supplied to several Indian states. The Prime Minister lauded her efforts as a powerful example of grassroots innovation driving economic progress.</p>
