Why Indian women are leaving the workforce

This exclusion of women has been reinforced by neo-liberal economic policies that led to an increase in inequality. In structural inequality, the already weak and excluded sections are impacted unequally. So as jobs decrease, women who are already less paid than men will be the first to lose jobs.

The ILO argues that to increase women in the workforce, comprehensive approaches such as improving access to education, skill and training programmes, access to child care, safe transportation, rules against sexual harassment, and a pattern of development that is inclusive and autonomous of political party intervention need to be put in place.(HT)

The cow and motherhood: A nationalism made for men

Campaigns to protect the cow and attempts to venerate motherhood can serve to undermine the autonomy of women, writes Anuradha Chenoy

The symbolic motherhood attached to the cow is not necessarily wrong, but if this idea of the sacred becomes an instrument of exclusion and attacks those who do not conform to it, this sacred transforms into the profane.(REUTERS Photo)
