Abstract
Women’s empowerment in India has been a central theme in discussions surrounding social justice, equality, and inclusive development. Various committees and commissions have played a crucial role in shaping policies and legal frameworks to enhance women’s status across social, economic, and political spheres. This paper explores the contributions of key committees and commissions, such as the National Commission for Women (NCW), the Committee on the Status of Women in India (CSWI), and other legislative bodies, in advancing gender equality. The main aim of this paper is to study the aspects of women empowerment in India from the perspective of various committees and commissions. It explores their recommendations, reports, and initiatives aimed at addressing issues like education, health, economic participation, political representation, and violence against women. Employing a qualitative and documentary research methodology. the findings reveal that while there has been significant progress in policy formulation and institutional support, challenges such as gender-based violence, socio-economic exclusion, and inadequate implementation mechanisms persist. The study emphasizes the need for coordinated action and policy innovation to ensure sustainable empowerment and equality for women across India.
Keywords: Committees, Commissions and Women’s Empowerment.
