Answers
Yes, Indian women do get equal space in society but this differs in various parts of the country.
Explanation:
- Women are the backbone of any country. They help a country to progress and shape the future of the nation by grooming its young adults.
- Women in India i.e. living in both villages and cities are financially stable to a certain extent hence, they contribute to the overall income of the country. However, they are tied up culturally and socially to live a certain way of life which binds them to stay at home regardless of their talent or educational capacities.
Do Indian women get an equal space in the society ?
Women have been subjected to gender discrimination since time immemorial and they also had to fight for equality. They first asserted their equality during the French Revolution. Then they had to fight for Women Suffrage. The modern times belong to women. In advanced countries in Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, women have secured equality. In other countries the struggle is going on.
In India too women had to fight a long battle to win equality for themselves. They have contributed equally in bettering the society since ancient times. However, their recent success stories have been quite impressive! Kalpana Chawala, Sunita Williams, Mery Com, Sania Mirja, Saina Nehwal, Sushmita Sen, Aishwarya Roy, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, the list is endless. The Indian women are stunning the world with their extraordinary talents. They have left men far behind in the field of academic excellence. At schools, their performance in examinations and other co-curricular activities eclipse boys. There is more number of women teachers. Even in other fields such as politics, industry, defense, space exploration, and research and development, they have made their presence felt. Recently first batch of women fighter pilots was commissioned in the Indian Air Force. All these are positive indicators of what they are capable of. Well the future is really very bright for them.
It is matter of great pride that many women scientists are project leaders at ISRO and DRDO. They have successfully led many missions into space and missile test fires. ISRO has brought unprecedented laurels to the nation by its successful Mars Mission, 104 satellites launch in one lift-off, and Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Mark III (GSLV-Mk III), on 5 June 2017. Women such as Ritu Karidhal, Deputy Operations Director, Mars Orbiter Mission, Nandini Harinath, Deputy Operations Director, Mars Orbiter Mission, Anuradha TK, Geosat Programme Director at Isro Satellite Centre have played pivotal role in this humongous success. So women must come out of the four walls of houses and kitchens and take an active role in spheres. Who knows with their coming out of the four walls of houses is directly related to the establishment of permanent peace, prosperity, and progress of the world?
In conclusion it can be said that women have established themselves as equal to man in all spheres of life.
