Our Nation is marching towards Nari Shakti and redefining Indian Womanhood, as we are acquiring the centre stage in the development discourse. The contours of development have seen a transition from women-centric development to women-led development. The parameter of empowerment has been widened to include not only economic development but also a greater emphasis has been on social development, which includes education, good health, everyday dignity, confidence, and courage to demand and seek access to services like education which has altered the power relations. This resolute commitment to elevating the status of women in society gives us a new conception of Nari Shakti, an Indian version of women empowerment that has attracted women voters towards the government. This wide-ranging support of women from all quarters can be seen in the 2022 Election Commission of India data, which reveals that the present government is more electorally popular among women than men. This revelation counters the numerous aspersions that suggest otherwise which are cast against Prime Minister Modi’s government that suggest otherwise. There has been a paradigm shift that the BJP-led government has initiated when it comes to a holistic understanding of women empowerment, transcending narrow prism of economic determinism and linking it with larger question of safety, security, dignity, and leadership.
