Answer:
In today’s world, women empowerment is one of the most important agendas of our country. They are given a number of rights such as the right to education, to work, to vote in elections, etc. But in old times it was not so. Women were deprived of many rights. They were not sent to schools and were married at an early age. Yes, it is true that many kids were married before they attained the age of 18 which now is a legal age for girls to marry.
The things at that time were so different that there were different laws for both men and women.
Like, both Hindu and Muslim men could marry more than one wife but a widow woman was never allowed to remarry. Moreover, if a woman died at her husband’s funeral, she was praised and was termed as ‘Sati’. Women were not given education nor did they have any right over their ancestral property.
The word Sati which is used in the above paragraph means a virtuous woman who died willingly or otherwise by burning herself on the funeral pyre of her husband. You will be surprised to know that in some parts of our country, people believed that if you educate women they will become a widow.
Differences between men and women were not the only ones present in our country but there were differences among castes also. Brahmans and Kshatriyas were considered ‘upper castes’. Vaishyas who were the traders or moneylenders were placed after them and peasants and artisans such as weavers and potters were known as shudras. Those who were considered the lowest were the ones who were into the work of cleaning villages and cities. These jobs were considered as the polluting jobs by the upper castes and thus, the groups at the bottom were considered as ‘untouchables’. They were not allowed to enter temples, draw water from the upper caste group’s well. They were treated as inferior humans.
