Power Walk carries a message of elevating women's status to the level of men, said the Chief Minister.
He remarked that women's participation in every sphere of life is quite high in Manipur.
At present, there are many women Deputy Commissioners and Superintendents of Police in the State.
Their elevated social status can be attributed to their perseverance and diligence, Biren said.
Informing that special fast track Courts have been set up to deal with crimes against women, Biren announced that a similar Court which would exclusively deal with POCSO related cases would be inaugurated soon.
The State Government has been working to protect rights of women and it is protecting their rights.
But women have immense roles in empowering their gender, he added.
The Government is also committed to bring women to the equal status of men.
At the same time, women need to work collectively to elevate their status, Biren said.
The Chief Minister pledged that the Government would support any movement which is aimed empowering women.
