ABSTRACT

          Education is is very important for an individual’s success of life. Education provides pupils teaching skills that prepare them physically, mentally and socially for the world of work in later life. Education is generally seen as the foundation of society which brings economic wealth, social prosperity and political stability.

          Men and women complement each other. If men were supposed to handle stuff then women were more responsible for internal affairs. The only difference in this notion is, today women are equally competent behind the veils and outside world. They are more confident and one can find them in every possible sphere of human’s life. No male bastion is untouched by females and that’s a wonderful sign of strides made by woman.

          Women’s education in India plays a very important role in the overall development of the country. It not helps in the development of half of the human resource, but in improving the quality of life at home and outside. Educated women not only tend to promote education of their girl children, but also can provide better guidance to all their children. Moreover educated women can also help in the reduction of infant mortality rate and growth of the population.

Abstract

Education is one of the most important means of empowering women with the knowledge, skills and self-confidence necessary to participate fully in the development process.

Women education is an essential need to change their status in the society and also empowerment intellectually. Women education in India has been a most important preoccupation of both administrative and civil society because educated women can play a very important role in the society for socio-economic development, besides political and legal. It is one of best opportunity for women empowerment because it enables them to respond to the challenges, to confront their traditional role and change their life-style.

Women’s education is currently at the center of international development discourse. In the discourse on education and development, EDUCATION has tended to mean primary and to an extent, secondary education. The issue of higher education has so far received modest attention. This article examines the global situation of women, higher education and development suggests some possible reasons for the modest academic as well as policy-related debate on the issue; and considers some implications of the situation for analyses of women’s higher education achievements in developing contexts. It is argued that cultural context may play a major role in how women’s higher education is perceived, valued, and employed. Seen from an economic growth-related perspective, investment in women’s higher education may therefore appear less cost-effective than investment in men’s. However, seen from either a rights-based or a human development perspective, which considers women’s education and gender parity to be central indicators of development in themselves, women’s higher education stands out as a highly efficient way of shaping more gender-equitable societies and thus as a major vehicle for general development.

My personal beliefs lead me to believe that our government plays four critical roles in ensuring a quality education for all kids in America.

Funding education programs, making sure schools are held accountable for providing a quality education, researching best practices in education, setting standards for our students.

Rakhi Bhatia

(Deptt. of English, IFTM University Moradabad, U.P. India)

Abstract :

Violence is a prominent issue in today’s world as the world has seen two world wars and numerous civil wars in one or the other country which become a reason of devastation all over the world. The theme which resolves the mind of the winter in the novel Shodh is gender bias which eventually results in revenge. Being herself a victim of the patriarchal structures Taslima Nasrin has seen things very closely that how women are given the role of subordinate where they cannot, in any way assert their right to freedom, right to equality. The most controversial novelist. Taslima Nasrin shodh clearly reveles that she believes in the theory of “art for life sake”. Not art for art’s sake. She writes with a purpose and gender this purpose is to oppose and fight against injustice, oppression and gender bias. An attempt has been made in the paper to analyze different dimensions of violence and their impact on the female protagonist Jhumur who eventually takes a stand for establishing her own identity in the patriarchal set up.

A study of violence Outside and Inside against woman in Kashmir

Rahul Kumar,

Assistant Producer, College of Journalism and Mass Communication, Teerthanker Mahaveer University 

Abstract:

 A study of Violence against Women is a subjected study to display the situation of majority home makers. According to the report of  United Nation  violence against women as “any act of gender-based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual or psychological harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life”.

Kashmir is gargling of the India. When we create a plan to explore the nation our first priority is Kashmir. Beauty of mountain, flavor of nature always hooks you and grabs you towards Kashmir. Women and nature both are interlink each other. Women are always precious for earth, there presence fulfill the nature with power of dignity. Women dignify the serotype position in society and always try to prove them self either in battle field or cooking table. Kashmir is a place which is made by god’s grace but people always unprivileged by their own rights mostly women of Kashmir. Bilal Bashir Magry says that with each passing day, it become more and more convinced that the greatest treat of Kashmir’s freedom struggle is Hurriyatization. Woman played a very significance role in our society and neglected most. If anyone want to destroy the particular civilization just focus on their woman power and they achieve what they want. According to a report Domestic violence is increasing alarmingly in the Kashmir Valley while the studies carried out revealed that more than 40 percent of Kashmiri women are physically or mentally abused by the husbands or by the in-laws.

In this research paper I use a critical analysis to portray the incident and cases in their home and outside the Home In Kashmir Valley. And also try to examine the reason of facing the problem.

Women and National Defense: Challenges, Triumphs and Male Response

 Abstract:

The present study has been focused on the induction of women in the armed forces which has been highly skewed and shallow. This has been based on an issue that critically affects the fighting potential of the armed forces, providing fundamental right of equality of sexes and also leading to women’s liberation. Many ill-informed observers have trifled such a sensitive matter by terming it as ‘conquering the last male bastion’. This is an issue of great contradiction where many stances have been taken more on the basis of personal views and mind-sets rather than on well evolved logic. The women have always been considered to be subordinate to men in every society of world. For Starting, this issue needs to be stressed that the services carry no male chauvinistic mindset. This is well known fact that fact that daughters of our country have excelled in all fields from the times immemorial and that higher class persons do not suffer from any gender bias and are very supportive of women’s advancement. However, the issue of women’s induction in the services warrants singular treatment. However, there are also the instances of narrow mindsets for the induction of women in armed forces. In the recent past, everyone was shocked on hearing a retired senior Army officer who recommended the constitution of all women battalions in the Indian Army. There cannot be a more preposterous and perilous proposition. Many organizations including various industries and large companies do not show gender bias in this age of development. Often we go across the news of hearing a number of American women soldiers fighting in war in Iraq and Afghanistan fights against militants. This is not equally true and acceptable in India’s stance against allowing women to join armed forces. The present study is an endeavour to remove some common misconceptions and put all issues in their proper perspective.

Why I am driven towards you

Why I am driven towards you

What I see that none can see

The wonderful beauty treasure

The unfathomable pleasure

Why none but you

Knock the door of my heart

I feel and I do see

The science of life in art

The emotion that I can’t resist

Your unfolding charm does persist

Why I want to explore

The hidden art and texture

Why I want more and more

Love and unquenchable pleasure

I can’t wait for you in queue

Why I am driven toward you

 Abstract

The 1970s saw a shift of focus by professions responding to domestic violence cases perpetrated by men towards women within Australia. Their focus was targeted at the factors that surround male perpetrators’ violent behaviour. As a result, a number of alternative interventions were established based on a new understanding of domestic violence. Wider explanations have

therefore led professional groups to form different angles of approach. Consequentlyresearchers have found that perceptions towards domestic violence and the effective reness of relevant in

terventions remain controversial across professions (Laing, 2002).

Based on the literature supporting the importance of consistent professional perceptions and responses towards domestic violence, the current qualitative research aimed to measure the consistency of perceptions across five Perth professional groups: Police, community-based, women’s refuge, justice and health professionals (N: 39). Participant responses (from survey and interview questions) about the causal explanations of domestic violence were measured in terms of their relationship with views on effective interventions. Consistent attitudes towards domestic violence were identified on a number of levels. All participants agreed that domestic violence is a community problem, a criminal offence and should not be tolerated. A perpetrator’s socio conomic status or the degree of alcohol consumption was not found to be causal explanations of

domestically violent behaviour. Participants acknowledged that they are significant factors in cases, and hence conclude that these factors are a stimulus behind the violence. The majority of participants supported psychological/feminist/sociological 3) recently suggested reliable theories, specifically the ‘Interactive Systems and Individual’ theory of domestic violence.

Abstract

 Empowerment actually is a process that addresses all sources and structures of power. An important means of women’s empowerment is economic independence through information, knowledge and necessary skills. Education is the tool that can help break the pattern of gender discrimination and bring drastic change for women in developing countries. Women empowerment refers to increasing the spiritual, political, social, educational, gender or economic strength of individuals and communities of women. There are several challenges that are plaguing the issues of women’s right in India. Targeting these issues will directly benefit the empowerment of women in India as Poverty, Health and Safety, Professional Inequality, Morality and Inequality, Household Inequality etc. The Government programmes for women development began as early as 1954 in India but the actual participation began only in 1974. Thus, we find that Empowerment actually is a process that addresses all sources and structures of power. and Education is the tool that can help break the pattern of gender discrimination and bring drastic change for women in developing countries.

Domestic Violence Against Women in India: The Truth of Our Society

Himanshi Lodhi

M.Ed. Student, College of Education, TMU Moradabad

Abstract: Domestic violence can be defined as a pattern of behaviour in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Abuse can be physical, sexual, emotional, economic or psychological actions or threats of actions that influence another person. This includes any behaviour that frightens, intimidate, terrorize, manipulate, hurt, humiliate, blame, injure or wound someone. Domestic violence can happen to anyone of any race, age, sexual orientation, religion or gender. It can happen to couples who are married, living together or who are dating. Domestic violence affects people of all socioeconomic backgrounds and education levels. The management of domestic violence essentially requires combined effort of law enforcement, social welfare and health care services. Although efforts have been made in this direction, the attended cases represent just the tip of the iceberg, as majority of the cases are not reported due to social pressures from family members or social stigma of defamation. Real change in these cases can only be brought about by changing the mindset of society through education and better law enforcement.
