Volume : I, Issue : IV, May - 2011 Unsafe Motherhood: Violations of Human Rights Vijaya Mahajan Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The “Motherhood” is considered as one of the natural and creative part of women’s
life. The shift of status from a “woman” to a “mother” is glorified and given the
status of deity in Indian religion and society. Unless a woman achieves the
motherhood she is not considered a “complete woman.” The woman, who does not
attain this status is looked down upon and isolated from community, family
customs and rituals. Thus the societal, cultural pressure is on women to prove her
fertility and carry the task to continue the human race. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Vijaya Mahajan, (2011). Unsafe Motherhood: Violations of Human Rights.
