Empowering Women in India, With a Special References to Skill Development

The Indian Constitution provides both equality and the authority for the State to implement affirmative action measures in support of women, enabling them to enhance their livelihoods. The female population accounts for around 48% of the country's overall population. According to the constitution of India, women are recognized as full-fledged citizens of the nation and are entitled to the same rights as males. Indian women endure significant suffering due to the lack of recognition from the male-dominated culture. The objective of skill development, especially for women, is not only to train them for employment, but also to enhance the productivity of female workers by improving the standard of work they are involved in. Several significant obstacles must be tackled to provide a favorable environment for skill development within the female workforce. This study seeks to assess the influence of skill development on the empowerment of women.
