Women empowerment is the key to strengthen their participation in the decision-making which is the most important key to socio-economic development. According to the data of research, it has been noted that empowering women acts as a potential which accelerates the economic growth and continue development. We should think about and need to discuss that how our cultural, traditional and social rules affect women leadership so that we all may break that. There is a social, cultural and home pressure on the women which acts as main issue to the gender equality. There is lots of pressure over women by the parents, society and they forced to be main caregiver and care taker of all family members. Such pressure in the society and home lowers down the career ambitions of women than men.
According to the research, it has been found during the discussion to women at higher positions that they cannot share and discuss their role or work at home with family members or husbands. They feel uncomfortable to share their feelings with them about their senior leadership position. According to the survey of top 50 women leaders throughout the Asia, there are three main challenges to the rise of women in leadership in Asia “Constraints of Family Life”, “Organizational Policies and Practices that Favour Men over Women”, and “Cultural Barriers”.
Women leadership is restricted by the various social, cultural and political norms which need to be understood and addressed. First of all we need to address all the social inequalities hindering women’s advancement in order to change women situation in the society as well as nation. I would like to encourage my colleagues and friends gathered here to discuss this issue in their family and community to explore all the barriers restricting women advancement in order to enhance the women’s leadership in every area like men. Men too with women need to engage in all social and cultural norms to encourage combined participation as well as create equitable environment in home, office and community.

Dear Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority towards the women empowerment. Since the formation of the society, there has been discrimination on how society looks on both the genders. It is through the lens of the society that we build our conceptions. Women are considered as being inferior to men on the aspect of physical strength and working capabilities.
Women have always been deprived of certain things which only men get the liability to enjoy all together.
But with the coming of the modern era, it is being noticed that women are getting space and opportunities to prove themselves as well. There has been the system of reservation given to the women in many aspects which has enabled the women to get equal opportunities like men. Reservation in education, employment and legislature have helped women to come forward with the issues of equality and upgrade in their status. Westernization has led positive effect on the issues of women and now they are getting empowerment. In every field, today women are given equal opportunities and space so as to enhance themselves. They have proved themselves to be efficient in all the professions of the world. Hence, it becomes very clear to the society that women have performed brilliantly after getting the space which the women were always deprived of.
Hence, there needs to be an active participation of everyone in empowering the women.
Thanking you in anticipation.
Yours truly
