Women empowerment is an important effort towards the development and social equality of modern society, but it has not been fully successful so far. Due to the lack of respect towards women in our society, difference in cultural and social status, and their social restrictions, they are not able to fully unleash their full potential. To create an empowered society, we should make efforts to remove the social, economic, and social restrictions on women. Along with establishing equality in the field of education, there is a need to provide support and opportunities to women for employment, leadership and opportunities in various fields. All this will be possible only when we eliminate discrimination based on caste, religion, and gender in society and respect the capabilities of all women. Along with supporting the efforts towards women’s empowerment, we need to make collective efforts to create a dedicated society. So that women can get social, economic, and political freedom and they can prove their importance in society.
