The Indian Armed Forces have always been at the forefront when it comes to safeguarding the nation's security. Members of the Armed forces have dedicated their lives to the service of the people in more ways than one. Along with protecting the nation, the Indian Armed Forces are building empowered communities across the country. Let's take a glimpse into the collaboration between Usha Silai Schools and various centers, aimed at supporting Army wives and family members with skill development and vocational training.
Usha Silai Schools are known for their skill development programme in sewing and tailoring across the country. Now, they have extended their impact by establishing community centres in Army residential areas. These centres offer vocational training courses to the families of Army personnel, creating hubs for skill development, knowledge sharing and community bonding.
The primary objectives of the Indian Army's association with the Usha Silai Schools are to empower army wives with skills, provide alternate sources of income, particularly in remote or conflict-prone areas, and enable beneficiaries to explore entrepreneurship and contribute to their family's financial well-being.
In collaboration with USHA, the CRPF has set up training and production centres in 19 different CRPF bases to empower the wives and widows of CRPF personnel. So far, 543 women have been trained and certified from various centres in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Assam, Jammu and Kashmir, and Tamil Nadu, to name a few.
