Women Empowerment does not only mean to provide women with all the rights she deserves but also the basic idea of contributing the best she can with her activities to the society.

It's a crystal clear thing that a marriage doesn't last longer if the husband and wife are lacking mutual understanding, trust and have faith issues with each other.

Empowering a woman would lead her to support her husband and family emotionally and physically as she is empowered through various means in knowledge, rights, freedom, and skills.

This is what I think in my opinion.

Hello, friends, I am Siddharth Bhardwaj from Patna the capital city of Bihar. Now I am doing BSc math honours at Patliputra University.

Friends, as we all know our today's topic is women empowerment -A cause for increasing divorce rate in India. Friends the population of girls is almost equal to the population of boys in India so if girls are empowering then it means that our country is also empowering so we all should take this in a positive way and not in a negative way. Women are empowering day by day in various fields like education, sports, politics, health sector, etc. For example in sports PV Sindhu and Saina Nehwal is performing very well in badminton, Mary com in boxing, Mira Bai Channu in weight lifting and in politics Nirma Sitaraman our finance minister is also doing well. When we talk about an increase in divorce rate I don't agree with this point that women empowerment is the cause of it I think the main cause of increment in divorce rate is lack of bonding of couples and bad personal relations. Thanks.

Hello everyone my name is Sharif Khan.

Let's come to the topic i.e. Women Empowerment -A cause for Increasing Divorce Rate in India.

Women empowerment means to give powers to women to empower them socially, Politically and Economically to improve their standard of life. We know that about 50% population of our country is women and more 70% population residing in rural areas where lacking basic amenities and status of women is still questionable. Yes women empowerment is one reason behind the Divorce but not only there are so many others reasons which including Extra Marital Affairs of both, Lack of understanding, Age gap, due recognition to opposit gender and to take otherwise to women's.

When women empower themselves they are capable of deciding what is wrong or what is right for themselves and they took decision. It doesn't mean that it is only reason for divorce, divorce can not be a result of only one cause it must be numerous of region. Women empowerment can only provide women that courage to take decision for herself.

Cause for increasing divorce in India is misunderstandings between couples, because before marriage they didn't spent much time with each other or may be dowry demand. Women empowerment can't be a cause. Because women empowerment gives authority to women to come forward to participate in every aspect of life and services not less than a man. It tells about their rights, it make women to raise their voice against any exploitation by society, so how it is a cause.

Hello, Friends good evening, afternoon and evening to all of you,

Now I would like to come on the topic. The topic is given to us women empowerment - a cause for increasing divorce rate in India. Women empowerment is empowering to take their own decisions for their personal and social development and would also mean encouraging women to be self-reliant and have generated them to face any problem in their lives with courage.

If we think women empowerment is a cause of increasing divorce rate in India it is a gesture towards our backward thinking. There is no relationship between this and that. The increasing divorce rate is due to misunderstanding between spouse's and domestic violence, harassment from in-laws and dowry system etc.

We are all here present for group discussion, I am Nilu Kumari and our topic is.

I shall start the GD. Women's Empowerment means making females capable of their living. Encourage females to start joining in the journey of being independent.

In my opinion, it is not women's empowerment that's the reason for divorce in India. But Indian culture of child marriage, forceful marriage, etc.

Apart from that, there can be many reasons for divorce. The compatibility, and behavior towards each other.

In contrast, women empowerment helps nation, female, villages to stand, to grow.

To sum up, I'd like to end by saying women's empowerment is necessary in countries like India. Females have the right to enjoy their lives too. If they are bound by marriage, then divorce is also right in my eye.

DOWRY DOWRY DOWRY MENTIONED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE POSTS.

BUT WHO GIVES DOWRY AND WHO TAKES IT ARE ALL FINANCIAL OFFENDERS.

We are talking of Divorce. The girl did not have to give dowry and the boy did not get it personally.

So how can this reason be enough for a divorce?

Divorce is possible only if both the partners failed to reconcile their differences, whether petty or big and so both are at fault for failing to reach a reconciliation.

Even if the in-laws interfere, that is not a sufficient ground for Divorce.

I believe that apart from the misinterpretation and misuse of Empowerment regulations, there cannot be any Divorce unless the couples disagree on their partner preferences.

If any of the couple is misusing the Empowerment regulations, it is better to get Divorced than to live in pain in such an uncompromising situation.

If a parent scolds their child it is felt it is for the good of the children.

However if the in-laws even raise their concerns and share their opinion it is deemed interference and a reason enough to get Divorced - WOW, Such TRANSPARENCY AND FAITH in relations?

Women empowerment has revolutionized the society. They have also started to built new ventures which eventually has helped the society. This has shown a ray of light in mutual understanding. Now in our society we have a lot of women entrepreneurs for which we can be proud of.

The media and technology has a role in degrading the institution of Family. The mobile phone is used by today's woman to have hidden relationships more effectively and gives a bad impression that they were looking for such opportunity to unleash their potential. The media also highlight provoking stories like rape of daughters by father and rape incidents and divorces, while good relationships and good families are not appreciated at the same scale. Good incidents all over the world are not highlighted as war, rape and murder. Many advertisements are not watchable with family.

The nutrition of the institution of Family is necessity of humanity. The loss will not only affect men but also women, especially children. The well keep of this institution should be the basis of a cultured society, truthfulness, decency, sacrifice to humanity and history of human progress. The well being and upbringing of children should be the sole responsibility of Family than state, where a culture human being will be created.
