Empower Women, Uplift Society  

By: Sahil Manzoor
Empower the womenfolk and provide them financial support on a monthly basis.
Women are the crown of any society, nation, or household. Women as a mother, sister, wife, and daughter. There are myths in our society that womenfolk can’t handle business sectors, administration, or medical sectors. It is very fortunate and great for our nation that there are women who are deputy commissioners, senior superintendents of police, teachers, doctors, and engineers. Who showed and qualified for a national-level exam like IAS, IPS, and acquired doctorate degrees in different disciplines?
In Islam, women have been given the rights that they can survive with full dignity and respect among society without any fear and force. Maybe other religions too have protective rights for the womenfolk.
Women empowerment is crucial and can play an immense role in the upliftment of womenfolk in our country. Women empowerment can lead to a revolution in a number of sectors, like in agriculture, artisans, animal husbandry, fashion designing, and teaching practices, and there are hundreds of sectors through which government administration can be empowered, womenfolk.
Women and our society:
Women play a key role in the development of society and play a great role in the eradication of a number of evils. In our society, women spend more time than the men because most of the womenfolk are housewives and have a good grip on what is happening in the surroundings and make decisions at their own level. Like educating their children, stopping them from getting involved, or engaging them in drug menace and other evils.
Why is education important for the womenfolk? Education is the key factor that can boost our women and empower them in any field or sector. Educating a woman may lead to revolution and play a main role in the development of our nation in all sectors.
Educating a woman means educating the whole society. An educated mother may teach basics to their children at home without attending any kindergarten.
Women as mothers
There is a great quotation: Mother is the first teacher of a child. It means the behavior of a child may reflect the behavior of his or her mother. An educated mother is the blessing of the almighty. The impact of an educated mother is greatly influenced by her family and peaceful environment remaining there for all the time.
An educated mother can teach her daughters how to face situations and hard circumstances in their lives and how they can protect themselves from the exploitation. An educated mother can educate their daughters; they may never fall into trouble, and no black sheep dare to make them a victim.
How an educated woman can motivate other women in different sectors.
In our society, we need an edge. Like a woman sees a woman working in any field, like in the education sector, banking sector, or business, they get motivated and attract that very field. The phobia that we have is that we can’t do anything, which is changed into we can do anything for the upliftment of our nation, family, and beloved ones.
Some of us still think that only basic education is important for the women.
No, and never. We need skilled, qualified, professional women in any sector. This notion towards women’s empowerment may lead to a developmental revolution in our country soon.
How to cover dropout women in different schemes.
There are thousands to lakhs of dropout women who give up their studies at the primary, middle, and secondary levels. Such women should be encouraged, and different schemes should be launched for their upliftment.
Skills like tailoring, artisans, etc.; they should be provided special subsidiary or monthly remuneration, and financial support should be given to them on a monthly basis so that they feel independent and make their dreams come true.
Government administration has taken impressive initiatives for the upliftment of womenfolk and empowerment in all the sectors. Like providing them scholarships and protection under different sections under the Constitution of India.
In remote areas, the women are suffering by financial means. Like not skilled and not getting chances to complete their education due to financial means and giving up their studies halfway.
Tailoring centers should be provided within the range of 5-7 kilometers for the unskilled dropout girls in remote areas. Stitching machines and other related equipment should be given to them, and financial support is the need of the time.
Higher secondary schools should be sanctioned. within their reach. Separate transport facilities should be provided to them from home to school and vice versa.
Sports and women
In an ongoing era, women have got laurels for the nation in different sports like cricket, badminton, carrom, volleyball, ball, kho kho, etc. We have renowned and proud sportswomen like Sania Mirza, Sania Nehwal, and Anjum Chopra (she is also making commentary in men’s cricket).
Women can play a great role in the eradication of drugs in our society. They may counsel their children and disseminate their message through different channels like newspapers, electronic media, etc.
One thing is unfortunate: there are parents who still think that girl education is not important and indulge them in a number of tasks like sibling care and household tasks. Not only basic education from 0 to 14. There should be an amendment that the graduation plus skilled education is mandatory, and it should be implemented to every corner of the country. When girls are laced with this much education and skills, I hope no girl will remain left behind in terms of progress, and they will develop in any field and bring the development throughout the nation.
An educated girl may educate hundreds of girls in their vicinity by taking tuitions because there are parents who don’t allow their girls to go take tuition from a male teacher or to go kilometers far from their home. Educated girls obviously change the shape of the nation and may play an immense and great role in the upliftment of society and the nation.
