Shrishti Goswami, a 19-year-old girl, was appointed chief minister of Uttarakhand for one day on the occasion of National Girls’ Day on Sunday.
Speaking about development, Ms Goswami’s euphoric parents said, “Today we are very proud, every daughter can achieve a milestone, we just need to support them. We want to thank the government very much for considering our daughter worthy of this.”
“Never stop supporting your daughters. In today’s time, daughters can achieve everything. This should be an example for everyone. If she can achieve this milestone, any other daughter is able to do it. We are grateful to Trivendra Singh Rawat for giving Srishti this opportunity, “said Praveen Puri, Srishti Goswami’s father.
Speaking about the opportunity, Srishti Goswami told ANI: “I am happy to have the privilege of becoming the Chief Minister on National Girls’ Day. I express my sincere gratitude to the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand. Also, I will be passing through the Presentations from various departments and I will present my suggestions to them. My suggestions will prioritize girl-centered issues. “
In 2008, the government declared January 24 as the National Day of the Girl every year with the aim of raising awareness in society towards the girl so that she is valued and respected.
