Indian Women and Society (Paperback, Dr. J. Ahamed Meeran, Ms.S.A.Hisshoraa, Dr.M.Saranya)

Despite challenges, progress has been made toward gender equality in India. While about a quarter of Indians believe there is significant discrimination against women, most people share an egalitarian vision of women’s rights. However, traditional economic roles persist, with a preference for men in employment during times of scarcity. Advocacy for gender equality remains crucial for a more inclusive and equitable society. This book discusses the role of Indian women in society before and after independence.
