For centuries Kashmir has been a center of learning and attracted scholars not only from the different parts of India but from different corners of the world. Lalla-Ded is the oldest Kashmiri author. Her verses known as Vakyas (wise sayings) are rich in philosophical theme and content. It is a difficult task to recognize the self and channelize the confidence. Lalla Ded choose to break the mould of patriarchy in a stiflingly traditional society but not allowing her intellectual and spiritual freedom to be curbed.
This paper examines the trends in women enrollment in college education over a period of ten years i.e. 2000-10. In the case of women, education particularly higher education has much more role to play as it provides not only requisite equipment and training for their future economic participation but it also acts as revolutionary force that is expected to liberate them from their subjugation and exploitation.

Literacy and Education are the two most important indicators of development of a nation. Higher levels of literacy and education act as a catalyst for cultural, economic, political and social development equipping people with freedom to develop their capacities to their fullest. Analyzing and investigating the strategy in a historical context with an open mind, the women in Srinagar emerged from the state of ignorance and poverty through literacy interventions. This resulted in effecting among the women a position of economic prosperity along with social rejuvenation. Therefore, literacy and education has been considered as an agent of basic change in the status of women in the world, state and also in the district of Srinagar.
The present paper elucidates some aspects of impact of literacy on socio-economic conditions in terms of gender perspective in the course of which schooling leads to social and economic gains. Further, a proper understanding of the inter relationship between literacy and socio-economic development of women in Srinagar is constructed. This can help in improving the strategies to be developed to shape the perspectives and policies recommended for women.
