Women empowerment is a debatable subject. Earlier women were getting equal status with men. But they had faced some difficulties during post-Vedic and epic ages. Many a time they were treated as slaves. From early twenty century (national movement) their statuses have been changed slowly and gradually. In this regard, we mentioned the name of the British people. After then, independence of India, the constitutional makers and national leaders strongly demand equal social position of women with men. Today we have seen the women occupied the respectable positions in all the fields. Yet, they have not absolutely got free from some discrimination and harassment of the society. A few number of women have been able to establish their potentialities. Therefore, each and everybody should be careful to promote the women statuses. India has experienced rapid growth and development in the past years in many spheres. This is deplorable considering the important role played by women in the socio-economic growth of the country. The Indian development model has yet to fully incorporate the important role played by women for propelling the socio-economic growth of the country. Current governments at state and central level must understand that no nation can progress unless its women are given equal access to opportunities and adequate safety and security. This Research paper discusses on women Empowerment, Its importance and States the importance of women in Indian economy.
