Women empowerment in post-reform India

By Sarmabiswas Chaiti

Women suffer discrimination in the society which is an age old problem. In presence of patriarchy, gender inequality emerged from and within the system. In this society, women were commonly constrained by the norms, beliefs, customs and values of the society creating separate codes of conduct for women and men (Kabeer, 2000). Consequently, societal differences became prominent among women and men. Extent of this difference varies; even across time along with varying structure of the society with respect to culture, caste, ethnicity, and class. The society even in this 21st century could not get rid of these characteristics. Being treated as a deprived section, women are still denied from power indicating that they are relatively less entitled to make strategic choices.
