Dr. Ashwini Deshpande is a professor of Economics at Ashoka University...and our go-to person to help us make sense of all the data around India's declining Female Labour Force Participation Rate. In this episode of Women in Labour, Dr. Deshpande simplifies some of the jargon to get straight to the heart of the matter—why are women in the country falling out of work? P.S. Watch out for some major truth bombs! With special guest Dr. Ashwini Deshpande: Dr. Ashwini Deshpande is a Professor of Economics at Ashoka University, India.
