Devyani Rana leads celebrations

Nagrota, Mar 8: In a heartfelt tribute to her legendary father and senior BJP leader, Devender Singh Rana, J&K BJP Yuva Mrocha Vice President Devyani Rana today  joined thousands of women in Nagrota to celebrate International Women’s Day, a press release said.

The event was held at the very venue where Rana had embarked on his journey to contest the 2024-Legislative Assembly elections—a contest he won with a record-breaking margin, emerging as the most resounding voice for Jammu’s cause.

The atmosphere was charged with emotions and nostalgia as the people of Nagrota remembered the dynamic and visionary leadership of Devender Singh Rana, who left this world on October 31 last with his boots on, just days after taking oath as an MLA, leaving behind an irreplaceable void in Jammu and Kashmir’s political landscape.

Interacting with the participants, Devyani Rana emphasised the unmatched potential of women and their role in shaping society as also their own destiny.

“Given the right opportunities, the sky is the only limit for women, who have already proven that they are second to none in any field,” she said.

Devyani Rana also highlighted the Narendra Modi government’s commitment to women empowerment, urging the women of Nagrota to take full advantage of the various welfare schemes designed to uplift them.

Assuring her support to the people of Nagrota, Devyani Rana reaffirmed her commitment to carrying forward her father’s mission. “This constituency was extremely close to my father’s heart, and I will do everything I can to uphold his vision for its progress,” she added.

During the event, Devyani Rana felicitated several distinguished women achievers from Nagrota for their exceptional contributions in different fields.
