Youths are generally deviants. They have neither education nor employment. As a result of this, they become victims of social compulsions and resort to criminal activities. There is none to guide them and motivate them for doing something worthwhile for their welfare as well as the welfare of the community and the state. Thus, youth power is either lost or misdirected.
Muslim women suffer from several handicaps.
They are generally forced to remain uneducated or made to discontinue after upper primary standard. They are just confined to the four walls of the house and prevented from acquiring knowledge about development. Most of these women do small jobs for income generation, but in the process lose health. Large number of children, irregular income of the husband and excess of dependency on others have wrecked the capabilities of women for development. In other words, for many of them, independence refers to improved economic conditions.
