Making a nationwide policy for women is the first step in empowering the women of any country. There are ample reasons and solid back ground for the emergence of National Policy framework for women that came into fore in 2016. The UGC sponsored National seminar on "Government Policies Pertaining to Women: Awareness, Implications and Suggestions" on 26th and 27th February 2016 covered different sub themes like-Women and Education, Women and Intellectual Property Rights, Women and Defense, Women and Domestic violence, Legislative Acts related to Women, Women participation in Science and Technology, Comparative Assessment of Central Government and State Government Policies in Relation to Women, Women and Single Child Policy of Government, Women and Finances, Women and Sexual Harassment, Acid Attacks and Honour Killing. Well researched and thought provoking papers were compiled and published in a journal as the proceedings. But the topic invited serious attention and presented an array of academic papers that deserved the magnitude of an edited book. And this is how this book came to see the daylight.
This mapping document of government policies vis a vis women covers legislation, policies and initiatives on women’s economic empowerment undertaken by and of relevance to governments, employers’ and workers’ organizations of our country. The book aims to strengthen the awareness regarding women in educational programs and national psyche.
