Speaking on women empowerment, the Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways said, "Women have the same rights as that of men. Men and women should be economically and socially equal. We should create a society where there should be no discrimination on the basis of caste, ideology, religion, language and sex.

"We want to make such an Atmanirbhar Bharat where there should be no discrimination on the basis of caste, ideology, religion, language and sex. Organisations like Prabha Khaitan Foundation will bring about changes in the society. I believe we will achieve the goal one day."

Prabha Khaitan Foundation is engaged in promoting folk art and culture, literature, music and also the empowerment of women, education for children and support for the elderly. Prabha Khaitan Foundation organizes various literary events in more than 25 cities of India and also in London, Birmingham and Dubai.
