There on began the revolution for women empowerment. This book is an attempt to analyze the status of women empowerment in India using various indicators like womena s household decision making power, financial autonomy, freedom of movement, political participation, acceptance of unequal gender inequality, exposure to media, access to education, experience of domestic violence etc.
