Abstract

Women and their rights towards education, gainful employment, basic amenities like drinking water and sanitation, housing, health and quality of living have gained greater recognition in the last quarter of the 20th century. The impact of this change in the society’s attitude and treatment of its women is clear in the present century when legislation is more effective in reaching the development benefits to women.
