WCD Ministry To Launch 100-Day Bal Vivah Mukt Bharat Campaign Tomorrow Nationwide
In a significant step towards safeguarding the rights of children, the Ministry of Women and Child Development is set to launch a 100-day intensive awareness campaign aimed at promoting a Child Marriage Free Bharat.

Annpurna Devi, along with Minister of State Smt. Savitri Thakur, will preside over the event, highlighting the government’s continued commitment to protecting young lives.
