The Mission Shakti teams are set to organize 'Bahu-Beti Sammelans' in villages across all police stations in the Prayagraj range, with a focus on raising awareness about women's health, safety, and rights. These gatherings will be conducted in the districts of Prayagraj, Fatehpur, Kaushambi, and Pratapgarh.

Participants will be educated on various issues including women's health and nutrition, particularly anaemia, hygiene, safety of women and children, legal rights, helpline numbers, and cyber security. The initiative aims to empower women through knowledge and support.
