Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

→ Any country's social growth analysis cannot be analysed without considering gender equality. Women account for 50% of any nation's base of talent, making their workforce participation critical to productivity and economic growth. According to World Bank studies, development strategies which include a gender equality component will see stronger economic growth, than gender-neutral strategies. Globally, women are an underutilized force for sustainable development. Women are responsible for half of all agricultural output in Asia, and 80% of Africa's farm output. Yet, they lack access to necessary agricultural resources, with which they could reduce global hunger by 12-17%.

→ In the last one decade, the government has ramped up the scale and pace of girl child empowerment. The ‘Beti Bachao Beti Padhao’ program seen significant milestones and created momentum in girl child empowerment. The 2000 crore program, initiated in 2014 was created to address India's rapidly deteriorating sex ratio (2011: 918 girls for 1,000 boys).
