Abstract	India society is the amalgamation of several societies having different religion. There is a common law of Indian Constitution which is equal for every Indian citizen, but these citizens, as they are living in a particular community has to abide by their personal customs, i.e., Religious Personal Law, where inequality persists. The term personal law includes the scriptural commands and standard practices of that particular religion. These laws allude to the standards overseeing the arrangement of marriage and its disintegration, the separate rights, commitments and limits of marriage; the connection amongst guardians and children; conjugal property; child custody or guardianship and inheritance. One of the basic components of most Individual Laws is that women do not have equivalent rights with men. Much legislation has been done to eradicate the inequality against women but still the disparity persists.
