National Movement And The Women Of U.P (1920-1947)
The women of India, like the women of any country in the world were treated in family and society as second rate citizens. They were subdued and degraded for the simple reason that the social structure was rigid and orthodox.
The social evils of early marriage, unequal marriage, polygamy, female infanticide, purdah and lack of education made the women crippled as well as a commodity to be retained or thrown away at will.
