Empowerment of
Women23.
There is an urgent need for improving the access of women to national resources and for
ensuring their rightful place in the mainstream of economic development. Towards this
objective, the Government will set up a Task Force under an eminent person to review all
existing legislation and Government schemes pertaining to the role of women in the
national economy. This Task Force will help us chalk out specific programmes for observing
2001 as "Womens Empowerment Year". |
