Every achievement begins with the confidence to express who you are.

Through NTPC's Girl Empowerment Mission (GEM), art becomes a medium for creativity, self-expression, and discovery. Whether through drawing, painting, craft, or other creative activities, young girls are encouraged to explore their imagination, communicate their ideas, and develop new perspectives. Artistic expression nurtures confidence, enhances problem-solving abilities, and helps build the skills needed to think creatively and independently.

GEM is empowering young girls to believe in themselves & embrace new opportunities.

Every achievement begins with the courage to take the first step.

Through NTPC's Girl Empowerment Mission (GEM), sports become a powerful platform for growth and self-discovery. By participating in activities that challenge both body and mind, young girls learn the value of discipline, perseverance, teamwork, and resilience. Sports help build confidence, encourage leadership, and empower them to overcome challenges both on and off the field.

GEM is empowering young girls to believe in themselves, embrace new opportunities, and move from courage to competence as they shape their own future.

Every dream deserves a chance to take flight. And every opportunity to learn, explore, and grow brings that dream one step closer to reality.

At Girl Empowerment Mission, each activity is designed to inspire learning and encourage holistic development of the girls. From engaging classroom sessions to sports, cultural activities, creative arts, health awareness programmes, and leadership-building exercises, the girls are exposed to experiences that help them discover their strengths.

Through GEM, NTPC is creating a nurturing environment where young girls can learn, explore, and discover the confidence to shape their own future.

NTPC stations across the country marked the successful conclusion of Swachhata Pakhwada 2026 on 31st May 2026, celebrating the spirit of cleanliness, environmental consciousness and community participation. Various activities conducted during the observance reinforced the importance of maintaining clean surroundings and promoting sustainable practices, reflecting the collective commitment towards a cleaner and greener future.

As part of the ongoing Swachhata Pakhwada 2026 celebrations, NTPC Bongaigaon, in association with Bardwi Shikla Ladies Club, has undertaken a series of awareness and outreach initiatives benefiting more than 400 young minds across the power station and nearby communities.

Under the programme, Swachhata Kits and Hygiene Kits were distributed to 100 girl students of Salakati M.E. School to promote personal hygiene and cleanliness practices among young students. Earlier, NTPC Bongaigaon had also organized a painting competition for students of Classes VI to VIII on the theme of cleanliness and environmental awareness, which witnessed enthusiastic participation from the schoolchildren.

To further strengthen awareness on cleanliness and hygiene, selfie booths, signature campaigns, and various Swachhata-themed activities were conducted in nearby schools, encouraging students to become ambassadors of cleanliness in their communities.

A special hygiene awareness session was conducted by Dr. Olie Mitra, Pediatrician, NTPC Bongaigaon Hospital who sensitized the students on the importance of personal hygiene, sanitation, and healthy lifestyle practices.

Awareness turns into action when communities come together.

As part of , NTPC stations are witnessing enthusiastic participation through drawing competitions, essay and slogan writing contests, street plays, pledges, and outreach activities that encourage responsible citizenship.

Every activity is a step towards a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable India.

Sometimes one meaningful conversation and asking the right questions is all it takes to change the future.

For many children, dreams are shaped not just by opportunities, but by the support, understanding, and confidence they receive at home. And sometimes, parents need guidance too because parenting doesn’t come with a manual.

In a first-of-its-kind initiative under Corporate Social Responsibility, NTPC Talcher Kaniha organised a Parenting Workshop for the parents of Girl Empowerment Mission (GEM 2026) students, along with a Career Counselling Workshop for the students on 24th May.

More than 110 parents participated in meaningful conversations around emotional wellbeing, open communication, confidence-building, and creating a safe space where children feel heard, supported, and empowered to dream bigger. Because breaking generational patterns often begins with awareness, empathy, and simply learning and unlearning things together.

The students explored career opportunities across fields like defence services, academics, sports, music, athletics, and more, while also learning about scholarships and support systems available to help them move forward with confidence.

The sessions encouraged every child to believe in one powerful thought; “I Can Do It.”

What made the initiative truly special was not just the counselling, but the message behind it: that every child deserves guidance, encouragement, and the chance to imagine a future beyond limitations.

Because empowering a child also means empowering the environment they grow up in.

Many participants described the program as a” much-needed platform” as it not only inspires students but also empowers parents to actively support their children’s aspirations and future success.

NTPC Girl Empowerment Mission 2026 is more than a programme, it’s a journey of confidence, learning, self discovery, and dreams taking flight.

Check out what GEM truly stands for.

Ye Udaan, Apne Liye.
