Volume : II, Issue : VII, August - 2012 Problems And Prospect Of Women Empowerment In IndiaPrakash Lamani and P. M. Honakeri Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : And the following phrase of Manusmriti, “Na Stree Swathantryam Arhati” (woman is
undeserving for independence), reflects our whole attitude towards women in our
country. Woman suffers discrimination and injustice in all stages of her life. Declining
sex ratio portrays our discrimination shown towards her even at the stage of birth. Often
the lame excuse is women are the 'weaker sex'! But biological evidence proves, due to the
presence of two X hormones women are more resistant to diseases compared to men. Life
expectancy is a proof of this (In our country life expectancy of women is 65 whereas for
men it's only 60 years). Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Prakash Lamani and P. M. Honakeri, (2012). Problems And Prospect Of Women Empowerment In India.
