Even after
70 years of independence still we are very much behind in women empowerment.
It’s because very poor nos. of girls in school and college. Due to that woman
are very less in employment even very less in politics. India is 193 ranked in
woman participation in parliament even behind our neighboring countries like
Pakistan etc.
Due to
lacking in education women’s participation in each and every field very poor and
it leads to measurable conditions. They are not self dependent lead a life of
second citizens.
A good step
taken by the govt. beti bachao beti
padhao. But it’s a slogan only but real work still to be done. We have to
change our mentality n consider them as equal. It’s practically experienced if
women are given chance they can produce better results than man.
They have two
additional qualities one is they are creature and emotional. In our ancient
time women were given upper position goddess vidya, shakti and Vaibhav means
wisdom, power and wealth. We go to temple to worship these goddesses but we
forget our daughters , sisters and mothers are their representatives, if we
treat them well , look after them well than no need to go to temple , it is
fact and written in our scriptures where is woman we call matriskti are
worshipped there is heaven .

jailed.

5. Begum Hazrat Ali: - was the wife of the

8. Role
in new India: - The
woman in modern times is entering into certain new fields that were unknown to
the woman’s sphere of role-sets. These are the woman’s participation in
economic, political, and social life.
The modern
woman keenly desires to enter into a work career because of the pressing
economic needs of the family.
In
middle-class families, much emphasis given to the maintenance of high standard
of living. To fulfill the economic requirements of the family and to achieve
the higher standard of living the woman participates in economic activities.
9. How
we can empower them: - women empowerment can be done by women, especially
the mothers.
1. Stop
tolerating any partial treatment to you or your daughters or other women in the
house, like Ghoonghat, less power of speech etc. Speak against them in a united
and powerful voice.
2. Stop teaching your daughters to be
wary of men. Instead teach your sons to treat women like equals.
3. Stop
buying different toys for your sons and daughters.
4. Stop
asking your daughters to reconsider further studies or do them after marriage,
only because they will not be able to find a groom to match the qualifications.
5. If all
Indian mothers get out of their orthodox thinking and follow these steps, I
don't know what else can stop paving a way for women empowerment in India.
10. How we can balance their duties at home and
office:- It was
concept why study for girls cause she had to handle home duties, but they
forget they are the mother and an educated mother will make their generation and
future more bright and successful.
