Uttarakhand Mahila Shakti Kendra (MSK) Scheme Guidelines
The budget speech (2017-18) of the Finance Minister announced setting up of “Mahila Shakti Kendra” is meant to provide “one-stop convergent support services for empowering rural women with opportunities for skill development, employment, digital literacy, health, and nutrition”.
The new scheme MSK is envisaged to work at various levels. While the National level (domain-based knowledge support) and State level (State Resource Centre for Women) structures will provide technical support to the respective governments on issues related to women, the District and Block level Centres will provide support to MSK and also give a foothold to women empowerment schemes including BBBP in 640 districts to be covered in a phased manner.
