We are more than one hundred and twenty five crore of which the woman population is more than 45 % of its total population i.e. in 2001 there was 49.70  crore woman in India. India is a country of Indira Ghandhi, Mother Terresa, Kasturba, Sunita Williams, Kalpana Chawala, and many more woman personality.  Even though in India and in the world women are known as weaker sex while men are known as stronger sex, and stronger sex always have tried to put a weaker sex under their shadow. India is social democratic country where social bandage is stronger than  it is in any other country in the world. Woman is generally treated as means of entertainment  for a men since long and due to this she legs behind socially, economically , politically and socially in India. She was not allowed to own property, did not have share in property of their parents, and no freedom to choose their job and so on. In early vedic era woman enjoyed equal status with men. Rigveda and Upnishad mentioned several name of women sages and seers notably Gargi, Maitri etc. Howevere during the period of Moguls and British rule  situation of women worsened.
