Women’s empowerment mainly consists of two words first is women and another is the empowerment that how you make the women independent or say how you make them powerful. In the entire globe everywhere no matter the country is developed, developing, or underdeveloped the women are facing discrimination. By the way of women empowerment now the scenario is changed but countries like India far lack behind to achieve the goals of women empowerment.
India
is a diverse country; the sex ratio is varied from state to state. The gap
between the Male and Female ratio is varied due to the notion of not accepting
the girl’s child. The word “missing
women” is coined by Nobel laureate Amartya Sen and told that 100 million women
are missing due to gender discrimination in India. The female labor force participation is also
very low as compared males in India but when compared globally the Labour force
participation of women of Developed countries women’s, we are lagging far
behind due to conservative beliefs as well as violence So awareness about that
males and females both are equal, females are not discriminated on any bench of
societal norms that men can do, female do not. Education is the key element of
women's empowerment by which all other benchmarks of empowerment will be
achieved such as participation in politics, decision making, self-dependent, and
visionary eyesight to uplift.
The
ratio of participation of women in higher education is low as compared to males
because of early childhood marriage but one positive news on December 16, 2021,
that the legal age of marriage of women is from 18 to 21 years. The age bar 18
to 21 is a good symbol of women's empowerment.
