- What a salient revolution ? Women Empowerment in Tamil Nadu , Let’s look into it ….!
One of the most significant social changes over the past 25 years in Tamil Nadu is the entry of women into the local political bodies at the village and village union levels through the 33% reservation system. Simultaneously, women are now, to a significant extent, organized in self-help groups. Through these about one-fourth of the households can access loans for small entrepreneurship or, rather more frequently, for smaller emergency/consumption loans. There has also been increased participation of women in the non-agricultural labor market and the emergence in Tamil Nadu of a rudimentary “barefoot” welfare state. In this article we report from a 25-year panel study of 213 agrarian households in six villages in Karur and Tiruchirappalli districts.
Women have had a long history in asserting their
rights. It is a commonly accepted view that
the male-dominated patriarchal society and
power structure would usually keep the position of
women low. This powerless situation of women has
itself made them to look for a way out and
liberation. Reformation thinking, feminist movements,
freedom struggle have all contributed in awakening their
consciousness. Women empowerment refers to
strengthening women’s position in social economic and
political power structure of the society. It also implies
capacity building with the leading role plagued by the
State and non-state organizations.

Women empowerment in India
The realities of rural life in India are difficult to comprehend. While a small minority of people in major cities have benefited from the information revolution of the past decade, the lives of most people in rural India (over 650 million) have hardly improved. There is a lot of talk about the “digital divide;” the government is planning to bring the Internet to villages, but it is difficult to see how this project will help when the basic necessities of life are absent.
A majority of villages do not have sustainable economies, and only through oppression of women and lower castes can the landlords, upper castes, and government officials support a better life for themselves. The social injustice that underlines this perennial problem cannot be addressed by a frontal attack on women’s issues by targeting women alone, but it requires a comprehensive effort in which communities develop through sustainable and integrated programs that impact everyone.
Issues of rural poverty and health have traditionally been the concern of governments. In the past, and even today, most programs designed to benefit rural India are funded and managed exclusively by the government. Private initiatives are lacking as the government, to preserve its power, has placed obstacles and disincentives at every step. For example, modern healthcare for all of rural India is a free government service, but the reality is that the delivery of primary health care has failed miserably. A number of charitable institutions and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have played a positive role, often assisted by government grants and foreign donations.
