| About Book: | The Constitution of India grants equal rights to women and various laws have been enacted to protect and empower women. While some women have definitely benefited from these provisions and have occupied highest positions in political system but for majority of poor and illiterate women life still remains a continuous struggle in a very traditional, patriarchal and feudal society. The Indian society harbours a clear bias against women but the situation worsens if women happen to be in conflict with law. For then they are branded as bad women who deserve bad treatment and their human rights are hardly respected. This combined with their total dependence on officials, corruption, lack of resources and lack of work culture further worsens their condition. Present work is an attempt at presenting before the world the condition of women in India who have come in conflict with law. |
