With a view to empowering women in the real estate sector, the National Real Estate Development Council (Naredco) has established Naredco Mahi, the women’s wing of the realty body.

Housing and Urban Affairs Secretary Durga Shanker Mishra was the chief guest at the launch of Naredco Mahi and the first panel discussion on ‘women in real estate sector’.

During the discussion, it was mentioned that initially, Mahi will focus on providing access to women entrepreneurs to a world of opportunities, from direct interaction with policy makers, networking with corporate majors of real estate industry and close linkages with the Government.

Commending Naredco, Mishra said, “Now you are bringing a new force. This will increase your strength by two-fold.” He also said that all initiatives under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs are focused on empowering women.

Rajan Bandelkar, President, Naredco, said “We would strive to mobilise women power at Naredco Mahi this year and garner more visibility for the organisation.”

The newly-elected President of realty body also noted that “the initiative comes at a crucial time, as it would help more and more women entrepreneurs shed the impact of the pandemic and support economic recovery. The members of the newly-formed women arm are likely to avail unparalleled business growth.”

Tara Subramaniam, Founder President of Naredco Mahi, acknowledged the efforts of Naredco towards empowering women entrepreneurs in the sector. “Better gender diversity and representation would not only unlock several opportunities for Indian women, but will also accelerate our great country’s growth momentum and help achieving the target for an Atmanirbhar Bharat.” she said.
