Any Nation’s development, growth or civilization can be assessed, evaluated or judged by the position of women. Since women play a vital and significant role in the family upbringing in which she has to play a dual roles. At home she involves actively in daily chores and at the same time she has to contribute at her work place outside her House. In olden days women are not given opportunity to exhibit their God given inner gifts, talents and skills. They were confined to family and its affairs and that too look after their husband, children, cook food, clean the house. But today it is not so. Women are educated and this education empowers them. They are involved in various activities like art and also they occupy position in social and political service. Today still there is a kind of prejudice towards women, due to which there is a gender disparity, sexual exploitation and violence. Even in some places girls and women are deprived of food and basic education. Also Human rights are denied. If she is well educated, she will also contribute to the Nation’s economy. Today due to technological and scientific progress, women have new avenues. Both men and women are doing same jobs and are drawing equal salaries. Education gives them immense satisfaction, respect and dignity. Also gives them confidence and empowerment to give their best. They will shine like stars if they realize their self worth. May every family, society, Nation and world stand up for women who are the real contributors of the progress of the humanity. She is most beautiful creation of God.
