Urban India has seen rapid changes in the condition of women in cities especially in metros where they are doing as well as their men counterparts are doing. However we have to focus on empowering women and girls in rural and semi-urban areas because we have reasons to believe that they hold the key of a stronger nation and long lasting social changes that this country has yet to see.

The changes in urban areas are visible but the changes are, needed mostly in semi-urban and rural areas where instances of discrimination are still happening every day. Girls are, forced to marry at a younger age without their consent and the worst they are, forced to bear children at a tender age. They could have become better mothers if only they were, provided the chance to choose their own ways. They are entitled for guidance and on different issues through awareness campaigns and camps at local levels.

Equality has come a long way in today’s world but not everywhere, not in every areas of our country especially backward and rural areas are way behind in this. Boys are availing all the facilities but girls are still way behind. This is high time that we remove our narrow thinking and look forward to change society.

What I feel is that we should trust our women and let them do what they are willing. We should be more liberal and let them move freely as they do understand and can rectify their own misdoings. We should not compel them to do them every thing according to our thinking; they are better prepared now and need their own space to move, we should not deny them this

What I strongly feel is that we must take it up as a subject at school level and let the young students learn it so that they can see its importance from the beginning. Parents should also know the importance of this subject so that they too guide their wards and teach them to respect women as their own mother, sister or real friend and not some one who they can mock. They must know that abusing women would be a criminal offence and they would end up as looser in the end. This is the only way the crime rate that is highest at this particular point of time here in our country would come down.

Education has a major role to play in the development of women. We shall have to make sure that every girl child, sent to school and gets proper education. The trend is picking up, the only need is to make things faster and giving them proper training and provide them ample job opportunities. They should not be, denied job opportunities in any sector as they have it proved repeatedly. Education and proper training to every girl, which is most important factor of turning women, empowered with the knowledge, skills and self-confidence and making them a part of the society and development process. There is one more point that should be important and must be, followed strictly that a serious step is, required to stop female feticide in society

.

Every point is important for women today to keep pace with the modern day society in every field be it education, self confidence, jobs, fashion, sports, health or general knowledge, women should stop relying on men and do things on their own. This could be ant thing right from shopping to use of Internet, mobile phone or whatever it takes to make them empowered. This will help make them free individuals, it is important for women to know their own power.

We should be, committed to see that women secure equal rights in every field, be it education, free space in society, right to express themselves and every other field which the men occupies today. Every girl or woman should have a right to choose her field and equality in every field.
