In past women in Indian society have been viewed as inferior and weaker compared to a man. This perception has been in the past where men are seen as masters or even gods in the lives of women.

However, today's women are increasingly aware of the challenges faced by their mothers and other female relatives, leading to a desire for empowerment.
