Abstract
The position of women as central role players in the over all development of a society is proved during the long evolution of societies in different parts of the world. It is also proved that no true development is possible without women's participation. It has been documented in a plethora of studies that in societies where such social and economic empowerment of women was initiated there have been positive implications on economic development, gender equality and social justice. It is for this reason woman was and is described as better half of a man. However, in reality, the status of woman throughout the world particularly in developing countries like India does not reflect the above description. In most of the South Asian countries, the status of women is comparatively low and their socioeconomic conditions are much more disheartening than that of men and India is no exception in this context, as women are still suffering in the spheres of social and economic life as second rated citizens. Among various reasons for the above situation, the level of poverty is definitely identified as major impediment. Further, either limited or marginal employment opportunities in many of the socio-economic activities, low levels of skill, lack of education have all contributed to low economic status to women in India. In addition, malnutrition, poor literacy levels, poor status of health and exposure to various unkind treatments like domestic violence, if not equally significantly restricted women's participation in the development process of the country.
