In India, women constitute almost half of the overall population. However, in the realms of work and starting businesses, the involvement of women in the workforce and their chances for entrepreneurship are significantly minimal. Given that women fall into the category of the vulnerable population, it is crucial to give them the necessary focus and recognition to escape their vulnerability in economic, political, and social aspects, enabling them to lead self-sufficient lives. Empowerment of women can only be realized when they possess economic and financial autonomy. This requires a dedicated support network in infrastructure areas such as banks, markets, etc. Such a support network is provided by the government, civil society, self-help groups, women's associations, and non-governmental organizations, which are essential in lifting women from various vulnerabilities and motivating them to engage in economic endeavors such as entrepreneurship. The topic of conversation revolves around the reference to a key federal program known as Mudra Yojana, which is significantly encouraging women's entrepreneurship by increasing the number of women's accounts established and loans provided to them annually.
