The Lt Governor said, the Saras Aajeevika Mela is providing an excellent platform for rural Self-help Groups & artisans to demonstrate their products, develop ties with buyers and learn about design, packaging and social media advertising.

Under the guidance of Prime Minister, our efforts in the last three years have ensured equal opportunities to women in every sector and enabled them to be equal partners in realizing the goal of developed and Atmanirbhar J&K, he added.
