Google India's 'Internet Saathi' programme to empower rural women

Google India's 'Internet Saathi' programme to empower rural women

Google India's 'Internet Saathi' programme aimed to empower rural women on how to use the Internet has now added two more states -- Punjab and Odisha.

With this, the programme has now reached 2.6 lakh villages in 20 states.

Launched as a pilot project in 2015, along with Tata Trusts, 'Internet Saathi' programme focuses on educating women on how to use the Internet.

These women, in turn, impart training to other women in their community and neighbouring villages.
