“When women prosper, the world prospers. Their economic empowerment fuels growth. Their access to education drives global progress. Their leadership fosters inclusivity. And, their voices inspire positive change. The most effective way to empower women is through a women-led development approach”.
PM @narendramodi
A thread on Women Empowerment in various arenas:
#UPSC
POLITICS
•At 1.4 million, 46% of elected representatives in rural local bodies in India are women
•'Right to Vote' was granted equally to all citizens, including women, by the Indian Constitution right from the beginning.
•The right to contest elections was also granted on an equal basis.
•Elected Women representatives have been key agents of economic, environmental & social change.
•Eg: India's President @rashtrapatibhvn Shrimati Droupadi Murmu sets an inspiring example. She comes from a humble tribal background. But now leads the world's largest democracy & serves as the Commander-in-Chief of the world's second largest defence force.
