Indian Women have marched a long way off from the days of the freedom struggle when they stepped out of their homes with national flags in their hands, following national leaders like Mahatma Gandhi. Now, fifty years after the achievement of freedom, it is time to look back and summarise to ourselves what exactly has been the progress in the lives of Indian women. This book is an attempt at a kind of documentation of achievements as well as an assessment of the path traveled so far and also an attempt at identifying some existing lacunae and finding out solutions for them. It is however, not exhaustive in its scope, it is representative.
