ABSTRACT
The highest quality in a society is generally seen as being a person's dignity. Every human being who is entitled to such dignity strives to uphold it. In India, the measures to defend citizen’s dignity are also mentioned in Constitution of India itself. Gender equality is crucial for the expansion of human rights, and women’s status in the globe is the cornerstone of societal progress besides being a crucial component of human growth. Although changes have been made in recent years as issues relating to women's rights have been highlighted, yet it is still a sobering reality that women have experienced atrocities for exceedingly long period, and the crimes still are committed today in a developing nation like India. At temples, a woman is worshipped as Durga Maa, but in reality, it is women who suffers the most and are still treated poorly by society. They cannot fully exercise their rights and become subjected to sexual harassment and other forms of discrimination at work by their coworkers. This is one of the main reasons women decide to stay at home and rely on their spouses for their financial needs. Many women still lack a decent education and are heavily involved in home duties, in contrast to the men who have access to all of the chances. Despite globalization, gender inequality still exists today in a developing country like India. Women must grovel in order to have their needs met. The Indian Judiciary is also playing a proactive role in eradication of gender biased laws, and implementation of gender neutral laws for example, the Sati system, female infanticide, dowry system, customary practice of triple talaq and so on got abolished and women were given equal share of proprietary rights along with men.
