Abstract
Gender Equality – a concept that easily said than done. Considering the pace with which the Indian society is undergoing a transformation, its women can’t be far behind. Undoubtedly, the education and career opportunities available to the girls of India today are at par with the boys and the society at large is learning and trying to accept female professionals. But the big question comes in primarily after girls get married and become “Women”.
