Addressing the press here, NATA president T Sanjeeva Reddy said that the walk is being organised to create awareness on gender equality and growing incidence of female foeticides in the country and State. Besides taking up safe drinking water projects in government schools in drought-hit villages and eye camps for poor school children, NATA has taken a serious note of dwindling girl child numbers, he said.
He further informed that the Association has taken up a slew of welfare programmes at the cost of Rs 2 crore, including disbursement of scholarships to poor students.
