Abstract :

 Despite the decades of development the fact remains that women in India are a deprived section of society, not only the benefits of development excluded women as a category, in some ways development processes have enhanced male domination over women. They perform many activities at home and unrecognized. Women occupy a very low positioning in organized employment sector as compared to men. They are not perceived as substantial income generating source. In addition to economic factors, the rigidity of socially ascribed gender roles and women‘s limited access to power and productive resources are considered as important factors that have led to insecurity of women. A number of Rural Development programming has laid the foundation for the progress of women in rural areas but still a large group of rural women has been excluded from the development paradigm
