___________________________________________________________

Women in India still face discrimination and operation in various ways by:

1) In the field of education, the literacy rate among women is only 54 per cent as compared to 76 per cent among men. It is due to the fact that the girls drop out because parents prefer to spend their resources on their boys’ education rather than spending equally on their sons and daughters.


2) The Equal Wages Act provides that equal wages should be paid to equal work. But in practice women are paid less than men even when both do exactly the same work.


3) The proportion of women among the highly paid and valued jobs is still very small. Often it is found that women do more work but their work is not paid and often not valued.


4) Domestic Violence There are reports of various kinds of harassment, exploitation and violence against women. Both urban as well as rural areas have become unsafe for women. They are not safe even within their own homes from beating and other forms of domestic violence.
