Women in Power Dynamics: Drive for a World of Equality
Sajda Khatun & Dr. Minara Yeasmin
India, with a population exceeding 1.2 billion (Census 2011), sex ratio - 940 females per 1000 males. Women constitute 48.6% of the population, yet their representation in decision-making and policy formulation remains disproportionately low. Despite gender equality being central to Sustainable Development Goal 5 (SDG5), India is lagging in achieving this target by 2030. The objective of the study is to identify the persistent gender disparities in the administrative levels of the education sector, where key policies are shaped. The study highlights that just 8% representation in the 12-member committee responsible for the National Education Policy 2020. Regulatory bodies such as AICTE, NCTE, CBSE, NBA, and ICSSR show less than 25% female participation in top-level management. This underrepresentation undermines efforts to promote gender equity through education and delays progress toward a more inclusive and sustainable society. The findings underscore the urgent need for increased female involvement in educational governance to ensure that gender equality is not only advocated but structurally embedded in policy-making processes.

Monika Rajak & Minara Yeasmin
Today’s in the AI world, a scientific attitude is a most crucial factor for women, especially backward-class women, because in the 20th century, they were backward in our society. The main idea of the research work was to evaluate the scientific attitude among Scheduled Caste (SC) women with respect to their occupation (working and non-working women). A Total of 303 SC women’s data were collected from the South 24 Parganas district in West Bengal (India) through a simple random sampling technique. The results revealed from the analysis that a significant difference in scientific attitude persisted between working and non-working women of the SC group. The conclusion of the study is that occupation plays a vital role in developing a scientific attitude in women.
