Answer 2

Explanation:

Sati or Suttee or Su-thi literally means a good woman, a good wife, or a virtuous woman. The status of widows in many societies has been deplorable and Indian society was among those many societies where a status of a widow was precarious because the death of the husband had a direct impact on her economic well-being.

History has witnessed the burning or burying of widows with their deceased husbands in various places of the world including India. However, the Sati system which was prevalent in India was highly debated time and again as this tradition displayed two contradictory pictures of a woman’s position under the Hindu tradition.

On one hand, Sati was portrayed as a cultural opportunity given to a woman to pursue the highest cultural and religious accomplishment within the society. While on the other hand this tradition portrayed cultural barbarism and oppression of women. In India the tradition was highly prevalent among the Brahmins of Bengal, the Rajputs of Rajasthan and the Deorala in the Sikar district.
