Question

reconstruct the life of girl child in 19th century India ????

Answer 1

19th century was one of the worse times to be a girl in India due to the prevailing unrealistic and difficult social norms like child marriage, dowry, sati pratha etc. girls or females were deemed less desirable, as male child was preferred and was given more privileges than the female child. girls hardly received any education, if at all and were married off at a young age, often to someone quite older than them.19th century females were forced to lead a docile and submissive domestic life without free will or decision making power of their own. not only this, in 19th century India existed the inhumane and horrific practice of sati pratha, which forced women to burn on the pyre of their dead husband. even if they escaped this, the life as a widow was very unpleasant.
