As I speak, the issue of women empowerment is on my mind. Although women in urban areas and metros are strong, confident and empowered, theu00a0 womenfolk of rural India are still supressed. They are not given any chance to voice their opinions.


According to me, the key to their emancipation is education ufffd they should be educated about the rights they can demand from the constitution. Also, they should be made aware of the financial rights they are entitled to after marriage.

Emotionally, women are more mature and stronger than men. If they could speak up and stand for their rights, then the world would become a better place to live in.
