Answer:
Explanation:
The women’s movement in India began as a social reform movement in the nineteenth century. The Western ideas of liberty, equality, and fraternity were being imbibed by the educated elite through the study of English. Western liberalism was to extend to the women’s question and translate into awareness on the status of women.
In India, the tradition of women’s struggles and movements against patriarchal institutions of gender injustice, have been weak when compared to the women’s movements in the Western and European societies. In fact, women’s fight against the oppression of patriarchy has been rather slow in emerging.
