Model Answer
(C) Ensuring equal opportunities and rights for women.
Explanation
Women empowerment means giving women equal rights, opportunities, and power in all spheres — social, economic, and political. Options A, B, and D are either irrelevant or extreme/incorrect interpretations. The textbook defines a feminist as "a woman or a man who believes in equal rights and opportunities for women and men," which directly supports option C.
