Status of women in India
Status of women in India
India is a vast land covering country in south Asia which has
the highest population status in the world at present. Earlier it was china
having the largest population but now India has left it behind. In the growing
and developing country, the status of women has increased professionally, socially
and economically. Even the rural women are becoming independent and joining
some sort of organizations or establishing rural committees where women gather
and start some manufacturing or creative product business. Their products are
getting fame and demand of their creativity is increasing because of
governmental and NGO’s helping contribution for marketing in domestic and
international markets. Their life and living standard have upgraded as their economic
condition has improved. Women in India have developed a lot. In educational and
professional fields, their interference is remarkable. They have established their
potential ability and identity almost in every field.
Earlier times of life of Indian women described their dependence
on men and limitations for moving out of home. Their life, in terms of today’s
modern life, can be termed as slaved life. They were not allowed independently
to move out of their homes. Education system was for male children only. Women life
was a miserable life. Because of no education, they could not dream for professional
life of their own. Their dreams, career, personal matters, had no meaning. But, when we read Indian history, we come to
know about brave Indian women warriors who fought bravely against Mughal
invaders and English emperors. Those who attacked Indian states were defeated
after a strong war fought by women queens. They were fully trained and their
sharp warrior techniques were unbeatable. They killed brutal enemies easily and
in a short time of battle. Indian history is full of brave women warriors whose
names are remembered by all Indians with great respect and honour.
India is a land of great scholars and clerics. In every filed
of life, women have been a great part of participation leaving remarks forever.
In today’s Indian environment, women of India are placed almost in every
professional life. Women, who cover the 50% part of population, are grabbing
all those professional stages where men are used to work and reach. Women have
all rights to work, study, decide for their own life. Their personal life also
matters to them. But they have a great talent in comparison to men that they
adjust their professional and home life together successfully and happily. Their
sharp mindedness is expressed in their successful performance. Being stuck in
heavy load of home and professional responsibilities, they have placed an
honourable milestone of their success stories in the country. They have
achieved the high and highest post of the government and private sectors undertaking
companies where they are shaking hands with great appreciating growth and
achievements.
All over these achievements, there is a dark side story about
women in India. That is crime against women. Whether it is home based, social
based, crime against women is a brutal truth in India. The cases of rapes,
molestation, con against them are a matter of shame and stigma in the high
developing societies of India. Women are both safe and also unsafe. They feel
uncomfortable being in market or somewhere at public place. Although, the
environment has changed so far but still the system of crimes against women is
just not under control. The governments have been implementing new laws and
policies for women safety, but the number of crimes happening are creating the unsafe
clouds over them. The cheap and sick mentality of the criminals is out of laws
and law fear. Why there is no safety for women still in such a strong and
developing country, is a matter of big concern. Females are at high posts, more
powerful, more independent, more educated, more admired, but still crimes
against them shake the whole country. This should be a matter of big agendas of
every government and women safety must be stubbornness and at first priority for
every government and citizen. When women are safe, the whole country will take
a sigh of comfortable relief. Safe women is the representation of safe society.
