• Discrimination against women and girls

is a pervasive and long-running

phenomenon that characterises Indian

society at every level.

• Crimes against women show an upward

trend, in particular brutal crimes such as

rapes, dowry deaths, and honour killings.

These trends are disturbing as a natural

prediction would be that with growth

comes education and prosperity, and a

possible decline in adherence to

traditional institutions and socially

prescribed gender roles that hold

women back.
