Abstract

Female collectively constitute maximum portion of the population worldwide, and they are also granted with the equal rights like men but then also the women are subjected to bigotry. They are not able to get desired place in the society like men and there is no such society till now where women can enjoy satisfactory level of equality with men. Numerous times the females face discrimination on various grounds like gender, physical ability and many more, and there are numerous countries where they are subjected to bigotry because of their weaker financial position or capacity. There is an essential requirement which needs to be complied with, that the Union and the concerned State governments are collectively required to pay their important attention towards this issue because as we all know that women are also having certain rights like the Right to hold any estate, house, or any other tangible or intangible property which is important for their dignified life and also for the prospects of their children’s.
