In India, women are discriminated and disadvantaged in the following ways:

  • They are not provided adequate education. Thus, the literacy rate among women is just 54%.
  •  Most of the labour done by them is unpaid. Where they are paid for their work, they receive lesser wages than men.
  •  Due to the preference for the boy child, female foeticide is practiced in many parts of the country.
