India on right path to become $30 trillion economy in thirty years: Piyush Goyal

Goyal further stressed on the need for more women’s representation in businesses as directors and owners based on merit and not just reservations. He added that it’s the empowerment of women that is going to help our country achieve our economic goals.

“Unless we set ambitious goals, we are not going to achieve much. We should be aspiring for 50 per cent of directors of companies to be women, not by reservation but by choice and sheer capabilities,” he added.
Speaking the occasion, Jayanti Dalmia, President, of FICCI Ladies Organization (FLO) said that India is poised to benefit from equality where currently only 25 per cent of the labour force is female.

The economic impact of achieving gender equality in India is estimated to be US 700 billion of added GDP by 2025.  (KNN Bureau)
