women

and

We may have a larger educated class of women than say what we had 20-30 years back, but
side by side, we also have one of the largest population of anemic women. We need more
serious and concerted efforts at various government, non-government, international and
individual levels to get things going in the right direction.
This knowledge comes from education and awareness. Thats an area we have to work hard. We
cannot afford to be reckless and wanton in our ways, and use women as a pleasure tool or as a
neglected section of society who need attention only when menial work or physical pleasure is
needed.
Unless we are able to develop the inherent belief in men that women are the other side of the
same coin of humanity, who deserve every privilege of life in equal share as men do, we cannot
create a just and equitable society and our values would be false.
We need to provide a conducive environment for all humanity, irrespective of sex or creed, to
develop their qualities and help them prosper, because that way we will be benefiting ourselves
and our society. If we nip the potentials in the bud and make a whole section of humanity a cog in
the wheel of daily humdrum, we are curtailing the chances of having a more materially developed
and culturally evolved world.
In our country, women in major parts of the country are still living in an imposed cocoon of
inhibitions and restrictions, which lead them largely to remain withdrawn from the social
happenings, as if they are ashamed of being born women and are better off hiding.
Often, victim women dont even know who to approach in case of any violation and even if they
reach the right place, their grievances are hardly addressed the way they should be. Sprucing up
the system must be made an indelible part of the smart governance mantra we are adopting.
