ANSWER:

Mainly due to less education and low skills

EXPLANATION:

   Education is one of the key factors of the earnings of a person in the market. The majority of the Indian women have meagre education or are less educated and therefore they generally have low skills. Being less educated, women are not aware of their rights as well as about minimum pay, or they are employed in the unorganised sector wherein they are paid low wages.

  Women are traditionally regarded physically inferior to men and assumed to do less physical work, hence they are paid less wages compared to men. Women also have the additional responsibility of bringing up their family and children and therefore they are unable to go for regular employment and usually go for part-time/temporary jobs that pay low wages.
