The empowerment of women is currently one of the most important topics of the 21st century. Yet, women's emancipation remains a fantasy. We see in daily life how different societal ills target women as victims. A nation's social, economic, or political development will stall if women are not involved in national affairs.

This demonstrates how miserable women's economic standing isin a country like India. Women's empowerment involves strengthening women's rights to all their social, economic, and educational requirements. Its objective is to give women access to a gender-neutral atmosphere. To give them equal rights in the workplace, family, society, and community.
