    Women employment is key to economic progress

    Tamil Nadu is the second largest contributor to the GDP of India, and one glaring fact is that the maximum number of 42% of all women employed in India, belong to Tamil Nadu, which also has the largest number of factories in India. This figure has been recently published in the Mint magazine.

    Tamil Nadu is a success story, only because 30 years ago, women were encouraged to study very well. In all families, at least one girl would have studied up to the plus 2 level, and those who had missed out are now given some chance to qualify as private candidates.

    We also need to understand that when are self-employed, through hundreds of self-help groups, there is a massive opportunity for housewives to do something productive. This has also resulted in a massive spin off effect, as the excess disposable income goes to funding the education of children.

    Every girl child in the Government and Government-aided schools is now provided with an incentive to study. This incentive is paid monhtly at Rs.1,000 which goes directly to the savings account of the child, after the sixth standard. Hundreds of thousands of girl children are the beneficiaries and the actual truth is that a massive number of servant maids are now determined to see that their daughters are graduates. Coupled with a rapidly declining birth rate, Tamil Nadu is right on top on so many human development indices.

    Kerala and AP are also reported to be making massive progress. In Kerala, the simple truth is that the educated women go to different parts of India to become productively employed and this is another welcome development.

    I say creating employment to the maximum extent possible and reducing the unemployment problem are the key factors for the progress of the country or the state. Giving jobs to ladies and keeping Gents jobless may not lead to the progress of the state. In Tamilnadu, many factories are working and those industries are providing jobs to many people including both gents and ladies. In Hyderabad also many ladies are working women only.
    Telangana is also doing well as many IT companies, Pharma Companies and other industries are situated in this state and all these companies are doing good business. These companies are giving good revenue to the state government and creating employment opportunities. Thanks to Vision of VHandrababu Naidu and PV Narasimha Rao for this.
    Creating wealth is the secret to progress. Giving freebies to the poor may do good to them but it will not help the progress of the country. Creating jobs and making all the poor also work will make the country go ahead and improve its financial stability.

    The author has presented a post highlighting the achievements of some of the states such as Tamilnadu, Kerala, Telangana where these states have taken up maximum care in lifting the standards of women -folk in the area of education. This is indeed a praiseworthy task and other states must follow such attend to enhance the skiis and job - opportunities of the ladies.
    Apart from providing education by means of different sources, the government needs to ensure absorption - capacity of educated women.
    It is agreeable to me to the full- length but why the same aspect is not extendable to the opposite - sexes of such states. Welfare is needed for the promotion of the entire state ignoring nurturing women only.

    Creating a conducive atmosphere for women to get a job is a great step by any Govt. If woman is not much literate then they can be given opportunities to join self help groups and earn money through those endeavours.
    Some states are doing well on that front. Many other states are following the trend. Central Govt is also making many efforts and launching schemes for creating jobs for women folks in our country.
    Job opportunities are to be created for everyone and then only we can expect a robust economic growth.

    Thoughts exchanged is knowledge gained.

    Education of women followed by employment is a major step for women empowerment. Those who are deprived of education can join the self help group and work in a community project for sustaining a business.
    A country is said to be economically developed when it has a high GDP and low unemployment. Men and women all deserve livelihood in a country and Govt has to devise schemes and mechanisms to achieve it.
    Good policies are always useful in achieving such objectives.
    Men and women have to contribute in the economic development of the country and if some states are able to do better in this regard then other states also have to follow the lead and learn it by studying the successful case histories and adopting them locally with due modifications as required.

    Knowledge is power.
