Civil Society and Violence Against Women in India

Journal Title: Research Journal of Philosophy & Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

It is a matter of concern that a major part of Indian society is constituted of such women who are discriminated since their birth. Sex role socialization not only tells girls that they are different but also that they are unwanted and inferior and have to be grateful for being ‘allowed’ to go to school or to a friend’s palace or to work. All decision are made for the girls by other. Besides this men’s work ends at setting sun, yet women’s work is never done. Not only this, most of the women are the part of the disadvantaged sections of the society the world over, especially in developing and poor countries. Sexual abuse, exploitation and deprivation of women and their fundamental rights are rampant throughout the world. In fact, violence committed against women in one form or the other, is a universal phenomenon prevalent in every region and society irrespective of the social or economic class which the women belong.
