While addressing, Chief Minister Mr. Bhupesh Baghel stated that the efficiency of those performing duties related to women will be enhanced further by this workshop. Goals can also be met more quickly with better coordination and cooperation. The master trainers who attend this workshop will be effective in the prevention of crimes against women. The workshop focuses on highly sensitive topics such as human trafficking, cybercrime, and workplace sexual harassment.

Mr. Baghel went on to say that poverty, illiteracy, and ignorance are the root causes of today's crimes. The government is working economically and educationally to prevent human trafficking; as a result of police officers' increased awareness, there has been a significant decrease in human trafficking; however, this is insufficient; human trafficking should not occur at all. Cyber crime is also on the rise; there are innocent people in Chhattisgarh who must be made aware; our government is also working in this direction. Economic independence is critical for women, so we implemented small-scale projects at the grassroots level.

Meanwhile, Chief Minister also stated that women must be financially capable. Our government is putting new plans in place to address this. During the Corona period, MNREGA projects were launched alongside rice distribution to provide relief to the people. The group has developed an action plan to help people become financially capable. Today, women in Gauthans are becoming financially self-sufficient by producing vermicompost, Gobar paint, and green vegetables. Similarly, RIPA is being established to provide rural youth with employment opportunities. This will encourage both new and traditional works. Legal knowledge is required for society to progress and keep up with the times.

The Chief Minister stated that the Constitution has empowered us, the government's welfare schemes are for us, and it is necessary for everyone to understand their rights and responsibilities; thus, the State Women's Commission operates Mukhyamantri Mahtari Nyay Rath. Mukhyamantri Mahtari Nyay Rath provides people with justice as well as information about the rules on the spot. Modern techniques are also used in the operation of the Women's Commission to expedite case resolution. Aside from short films, divisional level training is also provided by subject experts to raise awareness.

Minister of Women and Child Development, Smt. Anila Bhediya, stated that it is cruciall for women and girls to be aware of their rights in the modern era. The Commission organises public awareness campaigns for them. Mahtari Rath is being organised across the state to provide women with immediate justice. Women's self-esteem has risen in recent years. Women should be aware of their surroundings and make others aware of their surroundings. To control crime, everyone must work together. Legal education is critical for changing the state's status and direction for women. Women are currently contributing in all areas of livelihood and are on their way of becoming self-sufficient.Chairperson of the State Women's Commission, Dr. Kiranmayi Nayak, spoke about the Commission's tenure, saying that during her tenure, the commission got justice for harassed women by holding hearings in all districts of the state.
