This report attempts to offer a general outline of the contributions that rural women of Eastern Uttar Pradesh are making towards social and economic development. The vital role of women in helping to meet the millennium development objectives is among the crucial issues that must be confronted. To do this, we must encourage women to engage in social and economic activities on a constant basis. Practically, the issue has been rendered immaterial since women are enslaved by societal discriminations such as gender inequality, as well as by a lack of education, domestic violence, and other issues. In order to enhance the socioeconomic position of rural women, numerous programmes have been implemented by the government. However, to successfully implement these plans, society will need to completely modify its views on what is considered normal. Self-help organisations work with rural women to promote education and entrepreneurial transformation, and such changes are more likely to occur when women are aware of these options. Being self-sufficient and monetarily independent permits them to run their own business.
