Abstract
Women's Empowerment encompasses women's digital, financial, social, political, and Economic Empowerment. Less than 10% of women in India were literate during independence, the child sex ratio was 927, 1 lakh women were raped during partition, and every second marriage was a child marriage. However, now, the constitution has given equal rights to women (Article 15), the Right to live with dignity (Article 21), and the Right to financial independence (Article 16). Hence, the figures are changing, but the roots of patriarchy are not dried up entirely, and they grow again like new shoots in new forms. Seventy-seven rape cases are registered every day 20 dowry deaths every 24 hours, and more than 50% of women (15-49) have experienced domestic violence at least once in their life. In such a scenario, it becomes important to picturise the whole country and find out the state-wise situation for targeted treatment.
