Women Empowerment –Problem and Potential with special reference in Indian context

Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1

Abstract

The basic point in the discourse regarding women empowerment is that women empowerment will flourish and enhance in the fertileness and friendliness of societal climate rather than just any law and regulation or policy. The present paper strives to look over glimpse of women empowerment in context of India. The present paper strives to scrutinize the status of women and their position in contemporary time. And in doing so I endeavor to examine the issue of women empowerment through the lens of Gender equality and societal constructs rules and norms; Freedom, right, and Violence; issue of Missing women; Property rights and the role of State in post independence era. India being the believer and advocator of democratic society believes that gender inequality is biggest impediment for creating an egalitarian and just society. To change the status of women position and empower them is not just lies with state policy institution, their policy or feminist movement rather a broader social attitude is utmostly needed.
