In a significant step towards promoting menstrual hygiene and ensuring access to sanitary pads for women and girls, Dinesh Gundu Rao, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President, has announced the commencement of the “Shuchi” free sanitary pad distribution program. Starting from next month, this initiative aims to provide essential menstrual hygiene products to those in need, addressing a vital aspect of women’s health and well-being.
The “Shuchi” program comes as a response to the critical issue of menstrual hygiene and the need to ensure that sanitary pads are accessible to all women, irrespective of their socio-economic backgrounds. Menstrual hygiene is not only essential for women’s health but also plays a crucial role in empowering women and enabling their active participation in various aspects of life.
Dinesh Gundu Rao, while making the announcement, emphasized the significance of menstrual hygiene and the need to eliminate the stigma surrounding menstruation. He stated that the “Shuchi” program seeks to break down barriers and provide a supportive environment for women and girls.
Under this initiative, free sanitary pads will be distributed to women and girls in Karnataka, with a focus on rural and underserved areas where access to such products may be limited. The program aims to reach a wide audience and create awareness about the importance of menstrual hygiene.
The “Shuchi” program has garnered support from various quarters, including women’s advocacy groups, healthcare professionals, and community leaders. It aligns with the broader goal of improving women’s health and well-being in the state.
The distribution of free sanitary pads is expected to begin next month, marking a significant step towards addressing the menstrual hygiene needs of women and girls in Karnataka. The initiative reflects a commitment to ensuring that no woman or girl is hindered by the lack of access to essential menstrual hygiene products.
Dinesh Gundu Rao’s announcement has been welcomed by many, and it is expected that the “Shuchi” program will have a positive and lasting impact on the lives of women and girls across Karnataka, promoting their health, dignity, and empowerment.
