Abstract | Uttar Pradesh is an Empowered Action Group State with higher gender and caste based discrimination. The study aimed to understand the expectations imposed on daughters-in-law and the restrictions they face in terms of freedom, as well as to explore potential variations based on caste dynamics at Bisavli village of Mathura district, Uttar Pradesh. Thirteen women who had been married within three years preceding the study were interviewed including their mothers in law and husbands. According to the findings, a vast majority of daughters-in-law were required to conform to specified behavioral norms and were not permitted to exercise personal freedom. Their mothers-in-law and spouses played limiting roles in fostering this culture of silence. Lower caste women, on the other hand, appeared to enjoy greater freedom than the upper caste women. The qualitative aspect of the study allowed for a more in-depth examination of the participants' experiences and perceptions. The study shed light on the intricacies of relationships and power dynamics within Bisavli village through in-depth interviews and focused group discussion. The study emphasizes the importance of addressing societal expectations and limitations put on daughters-in-law, as well as advocating for their rights to autonomy, expression, and personal growth. |
