The Ministry of Women and Child Development adopted the Mission statement of ‘Budgeting for Gender Equality in 2004-05. This mission statement aims to incorporate a gender perspective at all levels and stages of the budgetary process.

A gender perspective in budgeting means considering the different needs and priorities of men and women when allocating funds. It involves analyzing how budgetary decisions impact gender equality and ensuring that resources are allocated in a way that promotes equal opportunities and outcomes for both genders.

The mission statement does not specifically mention providing safe shelter to displaced women. Therefore, statement 2 is incorrect.
