KOCHI: The inclusion of girls’s security within the finances was by and huge welcomed by social activists within the state. Some of them said that this might need been the primary time girls’s security was addressed within the finances. According to T B Mini, social activist, it’s good to see that the federal government is taking atrocities in opposition to girls critically and planning to provoke steps to stop it. “‘Nirbhaya’ and ‘Snehitha’ projects will be able to do a lot in fighting atrocities against women. It is always ideal to involve those working at the grassroots and LSGs in this fight,” she stated. 

Sajitha Rasheed, a social activist, stated: “Gender budgeting getting the attention in itself is a welcome step. Though Kerala’s budget for women is way less than the Centre’s, it does have a few positive points like the ideology itself and seeing women as contributing members.” 

Viji of Penkoott, although completely happy in regards to the allocations within the finances, was a bit sceptical. “A lot of programmes and projects get launched. But they serve the purpose only if they reach the people for whom they have been designed,” she stated.
