The Past and Present Views on the Status of Women in Indian Society

INTRODUCTION In past and present India, women's status and freedom have declined because external factors and cultural factors not only cause a major panic, but also adversely affect women and interfere with women's defensive responses. Cultures A number of studies show that the influence of other cultures and religions gives the impression of men's recognition in India and brings about changes in specific behaviors, clothes, property and habits.

The value of women's position in Indian society can be judged by the position of women in society. One of several factors that prove the greatness of ancient Indian culture is the glory of a woman. The influence of Muslims to India has led to a significant decline in the status of women. They are deprived of the same rights as men. Raja Ram Mohan Roy began to oppose this inequality and repression. - If you are told that you are the only place in the world in the world or you are a woman you were born, you were given marital status, how do you like women? There is no way to get rid of it, but I do not want you to become strange new things. You are trapped in this position. Women have no right. They are obliged to become robots and act only for men seeking marriage.

A very important position of women in ancient Indian society is myth. Today, I have presented some evidence that women's lives are tragic and extremely low in social status in ancient India. In India - In the ancient society of Aryans, we have a lot of evidence to suppress and abuse women. Most of the problems such as child marriage, dowry system, incineration of the bride, its paternal property, right of collective wife burnt (Jauhar) and widow baked (Sati) started in ancient India

The scholars believe that in ancient India, women enjoyed the same position as men in all areas of their lives. However, other people have completely different opinions. The works of ancient Indian grammar scholars such as Patanjali and Katyayana show that women were educated early in Vedic. The Bible like Rig Veda and Upanishads refers to several female saints and prophets, especially Gargi and Maitreyi. According to the survey, women enjoy an equal status and right in the early Vedas. But since then (500 BC) the position of the woman began to decline due to Islamic invasion to Smiths (especially Manusumiti) and Babur and the Mughal Empire, and later Christian restrictions on women's freedom and rights.
