All the departments in Tamil Nadu ‘’to formulate gender budget’’ is a welcome news especially when India has ranked 135out of 146 countries as per the report of world economic forum -2022. Focus of Tamil Nadu gender budgeting should be on giving budgetary provision for graduate girls to undergo job oriented certificate courses which would enable more girls to enter into organised job sector and to give basic training to women presidents in local administrative units . At the current rates of progress, it will take 155 years to close the political empowerment gender gap -- 11 more than predicted in 2021 -- and 151 years for the economic participation and opportunity gender gap. Hence ,concentration is needed in these two fields.
