Women entrepreneurs must for India to grow at 9-10%

For India to grow at 9-10 per cent for three decades consistently and reap the dividend of demographic advantage, promoting entrepreneurship among women has to be the key strategy, Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant said on Monday.
He also pointed to Khap Panchayats of Haryana for not providing adequate opportunity for health, education and nutrition to women, which kept certain state districts as worst performers on aspirational scale.
If women don't do well then the society faces an inter-generational cycle of malnutrition and infant mortality, he said.
