Jaelynn Johnston · Answer 2

Author argues for right to Education for women.

Answer: Option A.

Explanation:

The women even in today's date are not given the right to education by the country and there is still scope to increase the level of education for the women in many corners of the world.

With educating women, there is a lot of scope to increase the development and increase the productiveness and the power of the women. If the women are educated she will act like a bond of union for the whole family. So the barriers of educating her should be removed.
