Gender Bias in Mobile Phone Usage: A Case Study of Mukhra Village

Dr. Ravi Kiran Runjala

Abstract: Mobile phone became a part and parcel of human lives nowadays, and basically, not being a gendered item, but women are excluded in access to this service unlike men. The notion of gender bias/patriarchal dominance in this regard causes their material exclusion. That?s why, women are still lagging behind in owning mobile phone, accessing to digital services through mobile phone and so on. But, gender equality is somehow disappeared regarding availing services of mee-Seva and bio-matric. This digitalization process cannot be successful unless there must be removal of gender-bias being rooted in an ideological form/ non-physical form.

Keywords: Gender bias, mobile phone, material exclusion, Gender-neutral
