Dibrugarh, Mar 2: The Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal emphasised the critical role of women in nation-building, stating that “a mother’s lap is the world’s best institution of learning” while addressing the Central Foundation Day of the All Assam Sonowal Kachari Women’s Association (AASKWA) on Sunday.

Speaking at the event, Sarbananda Sonowal praised the government’s commitment to women’s empowerment, saying, “Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the empowerment of women has paved the way for a prosperous and self-reliant society and nation.”

Citing the Rigveda, the Union Minister stressed that women have historically played a fundamental role in shaping a progressive and holistic society.
