Feminism and its roots in India

By Shakvi Kaul

It's not unexpected to hear "women's liberation" throughout your standard eating table and newsroom discussions. This word is quite possibly the most abused and misunderstood expressions ever. Feminism's meaning could be a little clearer. Is it a conflict against men? Does it incorporate putting ladies above men? Woman's rights are the thought that all people are equivalent paying little mind to their sex. Woman's rights are elevating ladies, so people are dealt with similarly. It's not tied in with belittling men or proclaiming them sub-par. It's not founded on ladies having control over men; rather, the thought is that ladies ought to have control over themselves. Indeed, even before the term feminism was presented, we had some incredible women's activist symbols in our way of life and history. Draupadi, a lady conceived out of the fire, vindicated the embarrassment dispensed to her in the Mahabharata. Durga Maa, a manifestation of goddess Parvati, was made as a mixture of the relative multitude of Gods to obliterate malevolence. In the Ramayana, Sita battled for her freedom and brought up her two children without any assistance. Rani Lakshmi Bai and Chand Bibi are different instances of massive boldness and force. Voices rule. Voices matter.
