According to rabindranath Tagore “Women is god’s best creation”.she adds beauty, grace and charm to every aspect of life. Sadly enough, she has been neglected and her virtues glossed over by the predominant male society. Prejudice against women occupying positions of leadership are fast disappearing and their traditional role of gender objects are being rejected. The male dominated milieu whether social or political, is no longer gratifying. It is plagued with bloodshed, vengeance, envy and immorality. Communalism, fundamentalism violence and tensions have made peace and harmony with the things of the past. The world is permeated by chaos today. Only the benign and elevating presence of women on the top can bring in semblance of order in the present situation. Emotional, Afficianate, caring and yet firm, a woman is the perennial source of inspiration for man, in his Odyssey of life. She can definitely free the present world of its ugliness. Women like golda mir, indira Gandhi, Margaret Thatcher and others like them have left a permanent imprint on the history of the present and the last century. In the past, women like joan of arc and lakshmi bai have proved the strength of their convictions. They are no longer frail and untrustworthy and have risen far above from the drudgery. Today’s empowered women remind me of Lord Byron, who onces said “there is a tide in the affairs of women God knows nowhere”! That takes off point has been reached now, the point where they should express and assert their identity and actively be allowed to participate in all sphere . Once this is done the world will certainly be a better place to live in.
