INTRODUCTION
There is the major role of girls and young women in India. She is playing a
role of four fold status role sequences. There were her role is daughter, wife, house
wife and mother. The girl whose status and role traditionally was well defined and
almost fixed in the society, is now experiencing far reaching changes. The girl in
modern times is entering into certain new fields that were unknown by the girls
sphere of role sets. They are actively participating in social, economic and political
activities.
Awareness among girl child and young women about their role in environment
protection.
Discrimination against girls and young women in India has been going on since
ages now. Even today, there are several sections of the Indian society where the girl
child is treated as a burden. While several privilages are given to the boys; girls are
often restricted to the confines of house and given very little or no opportunities to
learn and grow in life. It is a matter of great shame that causes of female infanticide
are still reported. As per the figure of 2011 census, there are just 918 girls in India for
1000 boys. In such a scenario, the role of the Government and NGO’s becomes all
the more important in order to ensure that girls are allowed to be born and flourish in
life. Support charities like save the girl child to contribute your bit in spreading
awareness about the importance of girl child.
Ensuring that they have equal participation in decision making, whether its
in the family or at the community level
The researcher personally visited the villages selected for the study
and collected the require data through an outreach program. The members of
Hope of Bridge helped to arrange the outreach program for providing general
information and conducting the discussion. The respondents were contacted
their residence and the data were collected through discussion.
FEAR AND SIGMA
It surfaced from the survey that girls and young women often
spend much of their time fighting to secure their rights to participation severely
creping their capacity to fully contribute in governance. While girls and young
women may have successfully secure their place in governance, they face
incredible obstacles as they exercise newfound participatory right. The
experience of girls and young women in governance are diverse, but the
common factor remains the stigmatization with which have often met.
On several topics, the responses from girls and young women were
inconsistent with those of the boys and young men. Boys and young men
perceived their actions as encouraging the girls and young women who
experienced this as intimidation. Boys and young men responded that they
have girls and young women opportunities, but that they are too shy, scared or
don’t know enough to speak up.
Girls and young women responded that they were not given the
time, and often laughed at or criticized for saying the wrong thing. The study
reveal that although women are rarely involved in decision making capacity.
LACK OF CONFIDENCE
Lack of confidence is one of the reason for girls and young women
are facing today’s human environment. With confidence and determination
girls and young women can reach the highest level of many areas. That is why
girls and young women should believe in themselves and should do away with
the wide spread perception than men have to their leader.
Girls and young women are equal to and have the same potencial as
boys and young men, but only if they can fight for their rights. As noted that
girls and young women are very good campaigners and organizers, but fear
sometimes prevents from participating in many human environmental
activities.
INFERENCE: In this project study most of the girls and young women stated
that, they have very less confidence in facing many social problems. Because
of men commanding nature girls and women losing their confidence level
everywhere. She should know their ability and capacity to speak up. Girls and
young women should believe in themselves and should do away with the
widespread perception than men have to be their leader. Girls and young
women remain underrepresented in decision making, at local as well as
national level. Most of the girls and young women responded that, they are not
come forward anywhere to make a decision. The gender roles in the societies,
which relegate girls and young women to the private sphere, boys and young
men are hesitate to put girls and young women up front for fear of not
achieving expected objectives and sometimes they are rarely taken into
consideration.

Parents didn’t provide encouragement for educating the girl child (yes/no)
Girls and young women have become aware of their rights abilities
and work situations. However the middle class girls and women are not eager to alter
their fear of social backlash. The progress is more visible among upper class families
in urban cities.
This research study was focused on girls and young women. Any understanding of
Indian women of their identity and especially of their role taking and breaking new
paths, will be incomplete without a walk down the corridors of Indian history where
women have paused, lived and internalized various role models. Some have taken
entrepreneurship roles where some have opted for employment, some in entertained
fields and some for leadership roles etc.
CONCLUSION
There is an urgent need to change this archaic mid set of the patriarchal
Indian society which views girls as liabilities. It needs to be established that girls are
in no way less than boys. When given the right chances to nature their talent and
skills they have it in them to excel in different areas of life. It is therefore imperative
that both Government and Non-Government organizations work in cohesion to
spread the message of saving and educating the girl child. Should conduct awareness
programs for girls and young women to realize the power of their talent.
Women constitute almost half of the total population in India but they are
not enjoying their freedoms, equalities, privileges etc. Since implementation of
planning in India several policies and approaches were made to reduce inequalities
between women and men. As a result a shift from ‘welfare’ to ‘development’ to
‘improvement’ to human development.
