Add to basketHardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Advancement and empowerment of women has been a leading objective of state policy in India ever since the attainment of Independence in 1947. The principle of gender equality is enshrined in the Indian Constitution in its Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Fundamental Duties and Directive Principles of State Policy. The Constitution not only grants equality to women, but also empowers the state to adopt measures of positive discrimination in favour of women. Gender equality is a constituent of development as well as an instrument of development. No country can be deemed developed if half of its population is severely disadvantaged in terms of basic needs, livelihood options, access to knowledge and political voice. A natural corollary of ensuring gender equality is the elimination of gender discrimination. The problem of missing girl child pertains to unborn girl children in their mothers' wombs, who are deliberately disposed of (in contravention of the existing laws) before birth only because they are female. Their disposal before birth is extreme instance of gender discrimination, forbidden both by domestic and international laws and conventions. The burgeoning size of this missing group is now receiving attention as a factor crucial to the health of the social fabric and to the well-being of communities. 2011 Census data shows that the sex ratio for children below 6 years (i.e. number of girls for every 1,000 boys) dropped from 927 in 2001 to a dismal 914 in 2011. This decline is unabated since 1961 Census. This book provides deep insights into the problem of female foeticide in India. It explains and examines the reasons for its rapid growth, laws to safeguard the rights of women and the landmark judgments of courts in this context. Role of civil society and media has also been highlighted in improving the status of Indian women. (jacket).

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Empowerment of women has been a leading objective of state policy in India ever since the attainment of Independence in 1947. The principle of gender equality is enshrined in the Indian Constitution in its Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Fundamental Duties and Directive Principles of State Policy. The Constitution not only grants equality to women, but also empowers the state to adopt measures of positive discrimination in favour of women. Gender equality is both a constituent and instrument of holistic development of a society. No country can be deemed developed if half of its population is severely disadvantaged in terms of basic needs, livelihood options, access to knowledge and political voice. A natural corollary of ensuring gender equality is the elimination of gender discrimination. After 75 years of Independence, a good number of women do enjoy high status but countless women still continue to occupy a lonely, disadvantaged and humiliating position at the base of the pyramid. Exploitation of women at home and outside continues in most parts of the country. Male superiority and adverse conditions for women are still widely prevalent. The emancipation of women and the achievement of full equality between sexes must always be the primary objective of any society. The denial of such equality perpetrates injustice against women and promotes harmful attitudes and habits in men that are carried from the family to the workplace, to political life and ultimately to international relations. There are no grounds upon which such denial can be justified. The present work explains and examines frequently asked questions on constitutional and legal safeguards for women in India. While citing the provisions of the Constitution granting equality to women and men, the book carries a lucid commentary on many aspects of gender justice, conceptualized and turned into legal enactments. Comprehensive in scope and yet easy to follow, the book is a friendly guide to the complex judici.
