This document discusses women's empowerment in India. It provides background on important historical figures who advocated for women's rights. Women's empowerment means creating an environment where women can make independent decisions and have equal rights in society. The main problems facing women include lack of education, financial constraints, and family responsibilities. Crimes against women include domestic violence, dowry, acid attacks, female feticide, and rape. Women have rights to work, equal employment opportunities, social security, and paid leave. Empowering women benefits families and societies by sharing financial burdens and strengthening family units. True potential cannot be reached until women have equal opportunities as men.
