Despite the various efforts taken
by the Indian government for women empowerment
, the major indicator viz., the sex ratio tells a different story about their status..
Due to lack of social, economic. legal and political awareness among women , they are unable to use the resources at their disposal for their
betterment resulting in their continuation as the dependent population. The result is, not having their voice in matters regarding
their own education, job, marriage, child spacing and gender of the child to be
born, property ownership and management and exploitation within the family and
the work places. The Indian women’s participation in decision making process in
family and national matters is very minimum .The recent media exposure of the
various types of crimes against women has further restricted their mobility and affected their
knowledge seeking and income earning activities and thereby pushing them
backward .
