Employing Women Technical Assistants for Enahncing the Empowerment of Women in Scoiety

Abstract

Women in India have historically been suppressed and even more repressed have been women in particular who belong to the economically and socially weaker sections of society. Throughout post-independence India, all the provisions in the constitution and the length of legislation enacted to empower women were not sufficient to free women from their conventional bondages, liabilities and restrictions. The involvement of women in decision-making processes, particularly in rural areas, has remained very marginal until recent times. This article highlights the satisfaction of members in Tamilnadu for marketing women's self-help groups.
