THE IDEAL EDIFICATION

WOMEN EMPOWERMENT

To think of living with almost no control and freedom over ones own life is quite a suffocating thing. Women in India have to endure many ordeals in their day-to-day lives. For centuries, women of all generations have had to struggle to be treated as equals. At present, thousands of women in India are marginalized and poorly treated within society resulting in a lack of the skills and confidence needed to live fulfilled and respectable lives. Currently, a staggering 245 million women across India are unable to read or write. This severely limits their position and opportunities available to them within the society.
