Rights of Women in Contemporary Society of India

Dr. Mangtha Maloth

Abstract: Women from different sections of the society are placed in very different situations in modern India. Some women are entering new fields and achieving the same feats as men, while some girls are being killed even before they are born. In earlier times women were seen only in the household, but this expectation is changing slowly, as they are coming to the fore and challenging traditional mindsets. The modern Indian society, impacted by globalization and influenced by values of equality and liberty, seems to have accepted a more elevated position of women. Main theme of the essay: The position of women in our society is determined by contradictory values, concerns, and forces. While there is great improvement in their position, when we compare it to that of men, there is a long way to go before equality is achieved.

Keywords: position, women, modern Indian society
