It was Kittur Rani Chennamma who sounded the bugle to fight against the Britishers. Several women participated in the freedom struggle.
More share of women in the rural economy

The Anganwadi workers were doing the role of mothers and their patience must be appreciated. Last year, their honorarium was hiked by Rs 1000 and this year it will be increased by another Rs 1000. By giving impetus to three mantras, employment, education, and empowerment, the government has invested in education. The girl children are offered free education. Now, women are working in all fields, and proving anything can be achieved with self-confidence. Under the StreeSamarthya scheme, Rs 5 lakh is paid. the State has a 6.5 crore population and if 13 crore hands work, it is possible to achieve more. The new scheme will help in the growth of the state.
Women's safety

Accordingly, 7,000 cameras have been installed, set up a command centre, and provided 400 vehicles. This will be extended to all taluk centres and the City Corporation limits. The thrift habit of women has made the economy stronger. Women are now in IT/BT, Banking, and other sectors. They drive aircraft, buses, trucks, and tractors.
