| Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: South Asia, grade: A, Bhagwant University, course: Political Science, language: English, abstract: Women play an important role in our daily life. They also play an important role in the social, economic and political arena. The modern era has brought about new forms of subjugation and denial of womens' rightful place, this is to say, equal work but no equal pay, sexual harassment at the workplaces, isolation of from the governance of the country and so on. But changes began to show up with women becoming more and more assertive of their rights with the help of the then emerging feminist movements and emancipation struggles. In India social reformers like Rajaram Mohan Roy, Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, raised their voices against the existing practices and social customs subjugating women. Their efforts rallied around issues affecting women¿s life adversely such as the practice of sati, child marriage, female infanticide, polygamy, plight of the widows, etc. Raja ram Mohan Roy championed the ban on the practice of sati. The 73rd and 74th Amendment to the Constitution of India with 33.33% reservation for women has given opportunity for the entry of large number of socially marginalized category such as women to enter into the domain of local institution and their performance is very encouraging. |
