Gender Disparity in India and the Role of the State

Author(s) Sanchita Jana, Kalyan Kumar Sarkar
Country India
Abstract India has achieved a prestigious position in the world today with a fast growing economy, rapid urbanization, advancement in science and technology, and an expanding youth population. However, in order to achieve the goal of sustainable development, equal participation of women and girls is required. During the British era, gender oppression and inequality was openly practiced in Indian society. There were concerted efforts on the part of some socially enlightened reformers to uplift the condition of women in India but the overall idea was that women are born to remain subjugated and subordinated to the male dominance. Post independent India saw some more efforts on the part of the government ( both central government and state governments) to uplift and empower women so that they are able to find their suitable position in society. However, it is ultimately the attitude and honest efforts on the part of the common people which can bring about the much needed change that Indian society requires.
