Ensuring gender parity has become a great challenge for the modern world. Gender equality forms part of the development strategies in many countries of the world, including India. When both men and women have equal access to services and resources, enjoy equal rights, and get equal opportunities to develop skills and capabilities, then the development of the country is viewed as balanced and rapidly advancing.
