There is this lovely research that was undertaken sometime back, which said that the best way to uplift a family out of poverty is to help the woman of the house find more employment opportunities. Because out of every Rs.1000 earned by a man, almost a third goes in his self-indulgence pursuits, while every penny of the Rs.1000 earned by a woman is put in to good use for the upliftment of her family - kids education, better health, sanitation etc. rather than in trivial pursuits like gambling, liquor etc. And if we take the liberty of extrapolating this in to the development of a nation, I would say that more women empowered would definitely have a great positive impact on such matters like corruption etc. contributing multifold to the development of our nation.
