She Rises: Empowering India's Women By 2047 Through Education, Social Mobility, And Empowerment

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Women’s empowerment is a cornerstone of India’s vision for Viksit Bharat @2047—a future where the country stands as a fully developed nation. This paper explores the layered journey of empowerment, beginning with education, advancing through social mobility, and culminating in leadership and decision-making. Drawing on secondary data from government reports, surveys, and academic literature, the study identifies key achievements and persistent gaps in literacy, labour force participation, and political representation. While India has made commendable progress in female enrolment and policy frameworks, challenges such as school retention, economic inclusion, and cultural barriers remain. The paper concludes that achieving gender parity is not optional—it is essential for national development.
