Abstract: In the present paper, an attempt has been made to study the various
problems such as migration and displacement, feminization of poverty,

key sectors for women development such as health, education, nutrition,
equality, empowerment, protection against exploitation and protection against
violence, the present study suggests the policy implications on the basis of
findings of the present paper.
