WOMEN EMPOWERMENT should not be a half baked subject in India: Powerful women reflect powerful society

September 29th, 2017 admin Articles 0 comments

What is Women Empowerment? Women empowerment if defined in very simple words mean making women powerful so that they can take their own decisions regarding their lives and wellbeing in the family and society. It means empowering women to enable them to get their real rights in the society.

Empowerment of women is instrumental in helping them to take their own decision for their personal dependence and to make women independent in every way possible i.e. from mind, thought, rights, decisions, etc. It is to bring equality in the society for both male and females in all areas. Women empowerment is necessary to develop the bright future of the family, society and country.

India is a country known for its cultural heritage, traditions, civilization and religion. On the other hand, it is also popular as a male dominated patriarchal nation. Women oriented programmes are given the first priority in India however on the other hand they were badly treated in the family and society. Today Indian women work in demanding settings with long work hours, tight deadlines and professional pressures in competitive environments. The natural tendency for anyone dealing with a busy day would be to turn home to relax. But for women, parenting duties and household work make it difficult to find this space at home. They were kept totally unaware of their rights and their own development.

There is a high level of gender inequality in India where women are ill treated by their family members and outsiders. The maximum percentage of illiterate population in India comprises mostly of the women. The real meaning of the women empowerment is to make them well educated and leave them free so that they can be capable to take their own decisions in any field. Giving priority to the gender equality facilitates women empowerment all over the country. To get the high level goal of women empowerment, it should be promoted from the childhood in each and every family. It needs women to be strong physically, mentally and socially.  Since the better education can be started at home from childhood, the upliftment of women needs a  healthy family and conducive environment to bring about the  great development of the nation.

Women in India now participate in diverse areas such as education, sports, politics, media, art and culture, service sector and science and technology. But due to the deep- rooted gender biased mentality in the Indian society, women are still victimized, humiliated, tortured and exploited. Even after almost seven decades of Independence, women are still subjected to discrimination in the social, economic and educational field.

Women Empowerment refers to increasing and improving the social, economic, political and legal strength of the women, to ensure equal-right to women, and to make them confident enough to claim their rights, such as:

  • freely live their life with a sense of self-worth, respect and dignity,
  • have complete control of their life, both within and outside of their home and workplace,
  • to make their own choices and decisions,
  • have equal rights to participate in social, religious and public activities,
  • have equal social status in the society,
  • have equal rights for social and economic justice,
  • determine financial and economic choices,
  • get equal opportunity for education,
  • get equal employment opportunity without any gender bias,
  • get safe and comfortable working environment.

 

Solution

The solutions for empowerment of women include the following:

  • Education through mass communication is very important. Both women and men should be made aware of their responsibilities to promote and practice gender-equality.
  • Gather national data and identify the areas where instances of violence and gender-inequality is the most. This data can be used by the Government, NGOs and field workers to raise the status of women.
  • The society should be made aware that both boy-child and girl-child are equal, and they both should have equal access to resources.
