This study aims to find out significant obstacles faced by Indian women in their quest for gender equality. The Constitution of India has given Indian women equal rights with men in all spheres. However, even today, there is quite a gender imbalance in Indian society. In this study International Labor Organization data for low female participation in the workforce were analyzed and mechanism to promote the advancement of women were discussed. This research examines the status of women in India before the 2010s and evaluates the changes that have occurred in significant areas, including women’s policy and social welfare since then to the early 2020s. According to this research, lack of education is the major obstacle that hinders the empowerment and emancipation of Indian women and often leads to the problem of child marriage and economic dependence. Setting up a greater number of educational centers may alleviate the pain of women to a large extent.
Abstract
This study aims to find out significant obstacles faced by Indian women in their quest for gender equality. The Constitution of India has given Indian women equal rights with men in all spheres.

This research examines the status of women in India before the 2010s and evaluates the changes that have occurred in significant areas, including women’s policy and social welfare since then to the early 2020s. According to this research, lack of education is the major obstacle that hinders the empowerment and emancipation of Indian women and often leads to the problem of child marriage and economic dependence.
