The Status of Women in India

RE: India's Women's Status, Universal Appeal to Relative Human Rights, Sovereignty In the four years from 2009 to 2012, India's rapid economic improvement attracted the attention of many countries, including the United States. The annual GDP growth rate is 7%, Goldman Sachs predicts that India will become one of the world's top five economic countries by 2030, all comments on this country relate to its new possibilities doing. By 16 December 2012, the protesters demanded conviction of six men, so India became the source of anger for international social media.

The status of women is constantly changing. The history of women in India is exciting. In the past thousands of years, the status of women in India has changed significantly. In ancient India, women enjoyed the same position as men in every field of life. Works of ancient Indian grammar scholars such as Patanjali and Katyayana pointed out that women received education early in Veda. The poetry of Rigvedic says that these women are mature and married and they can freely choose their opponents in their lives. Rig Veda and Upanishads, the Bible says there are many female saints and prophets like Gari and Maitreyi. STRI Tryambakayajvan's text Dharma Paddhati reflects the role of women and says that "women are ordered to serve their husbands." In some ancient kingdoms in India, the tradition like Nagar Vadhu is the bride of the city. Amrapari is famous for its Nagarbadu. Women compete to win the popular title of "Nagar Vadhu"

Over the past few thousand years there have been many major changes in the status of women in India. In early Vedas, women enjoyed the same status as men. Rigved and Upanishads refer to the names of several female saints and prophets, especially Gargi and Maître. However, the position of women began to worsen around 500 BC, the situation deteriorated by the invasion of the Mughal dynasty and subsequent European invaders. Master gifts Nanak, Jaina, Rajaram, Mohanrai, Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, Pandita Ramabai and other people's campaign gave some relief. The British did not do anything to improve the situation of women. Some law promulgated "Abolition of Satie's practice", "Law of widowed remarriage of 1856" etc. Feminist activity gained momentum in India in the late 1970s. Since that time, many organizations and NGOs have focused on empowerment of women. In India, I am proud that women have acquired a large number of voting rights before the United States and other European countries.
