Mission Shakti to Organise Statewide ‘Subhadra Shakti Samavesh’ from June 21 to 30

Bhubaneswar, June 2026 : Deputy Chief Minister Smt. Pravati Parida on Tuesday chaired a virtual review meeting with field-level officials from all districts regarding preparations for the statewide ‘Subhadra Shakti Samavesh’ programme, scheduled to be held across the state from June 21 to June 30.

The meeting was held at Mission Shakti Bhawan in Bhubaneswar on the last day of the Raja festival.

As part of the initiative, ‘Subhadra Shakti Samavesh’ will be organised in all Gram Panchayats across Odisha. The programme aims to create widespread awareness about women’s empowerment and livelihood opportunities. It will also sensitise Self-Help Group (SHG) members about various government schemes, financial inclusion, skill development, market linkages, and encourage the creation of more ‘Lakhpati Didis’ and ‘Mahalakhpati Didis’.

During the review, the Deputy Chief Minister directed officials to complete all necessary preparations to ensure the smooth and successful conduct of the programme across districts.

Later, Honourable Minister chaired an interaction programme with Community Support Staff (CSS) of Mission Shakti at the conference hall of Mission Shakti Bhawan. More than 300 Community Support Staff members from all 30 districts participated in the programme.

Extending greetings on the occasion of Raja festival, the Deputy Chief Minister said that the dedication, hard work and efficiency of Community Support Staff have been the driving force behind the success of Mission Shakti. She noted that their continuous efforts have helped ensure the effective implementation of various government schemes at the grassroots level.

Appreciating the contribution of the Community Support Staff, Honorable Minister said, “You are the representatives of the department. Due to your organised and efficient performance, Odisha has secured the top position in the country in the area of outstanding work efficiency. The government remains committed to resolving your issues with sincerity.”

The interaction also reviewed the progress of grassroots-level activities and provided key directions for strengthening and expanding Mission Shakti programmes in the future.
