Life of woman in India
The life of woman in India is not normal. Though our constitution has pronounced that the woman has equal rights here, yet our society could not accept all these changes brought by democracy here. The woman is still standing at the same position where she was prior to 1947. The habits and institutions which our society had acquired in generations, they would not leave all those habits with the passing and adoption of the present constitution.
We have noted that the woman has to go to the house of her in laws. The marriage concept had been introduced in India much later and with the introduction of this concept the woman in India could get some relief, because she could get a house and a permanent husband who shall be the father of all his children. Prior to the introduction of this marriage concept she was to bring up all the children herself and there was none who could be called the father of the children she bore. She was not secure and there was no one who could look after her. But with the introduction of this marriage concept she could get a man who becomes her life partner and that is the reason she accepted all these challenges of life and she goes to the house of her in laws where most of the people excepting her husband were not liking her entry.
It is on record that if brothers are also present in the house, she shall be getting a second position and she shall be at number one only when there is no brother in the house. She is given some dowry and when the question of sharing properties comes, the brothers shall get all the share and she would be denied her share in spite of the fact that the state has passed a law in her favour. Even the parents shall say that she had got all the share on her marriage in shape of dowry. And she is not given proper education, training only because the parents believe that she is not their property but property of others. And she has got all the fears in her mind about the house to which she would go after marriage. Even her parents have got so many fears in their mind about the people to which house their daughter shall go. And even after marriage, some brides are killed for sake of dowry or they are compelled to commit suicide because they could not demand more dowry from their parents.
In most of the cases Indian women are not financially sound. They are dependant upon the earnings of their husbands and that is the reason, they are just kept in the house as slaves to carry on domestic works without any wages or we can say on honorary basis. They have to suffer at home when their husbands are at liberty and we have noticed that this man of this side had been having call girls, dancing girls, prostitutes, keeps and the like and even at times the man was found committing adultery. The woman of the house comes to know all these indulgences of her man, but she cannot speak and if she speaks, she could be turned out of the house. The woman of this side is not at liberty to give divorce to her erring husband because she is not earning hand and she knows that even her parents shall not like her return to the parental house where her married brothers have taken their due positions.
The woman is dependant upon her husband and she knows what shall be her position if she becomes a widow or a deserted woman. So sufferings and bearing all these sufferings is the fate of the woman on this side and that is the reason, the woman is not an equal partner here and that led to the present situations in India. The woman who has been given equality in our Constitution is yet to take her birth.
The woman shall suffer till these situations are prevailing here. There seems no solution of these problems in India. If some women are rising, it is only because that they are having proper education, proper training and proper adjustment at work and they are financially strong. But the number of such women is on the very lower side. The number is increasing, but the speed is very slow.

In this age of science and technology..
Time has come when all the wise people of the world should sit and consider the matter of those who are still poor. When we are flying in the skies and when we are constructing war heads and are boasting that we can destroy the whole earth within minutes, we should think of the people residing on this earth and we should utilize our energy and power for upgrading the position of these people.
The people of the world should not boast that they are the most advanced countries and they have left many countries far behind. Such boasting is a futile exercise because the whole population living on this earth must be enjoying all the facilities which are available on this earth and none should be deprived of the inventions and discoveries available on this earth. The advanced countries must stop manufacturing war heads and they should put their whole energy and they should see that in all the countries, the man is getting proper education, proper training and proper adjustment at work and we must make it sure that none should be dependant upon others and every one should be able to run his family administration to his satisfaction.
We know that everything is available on this earth and we are now utilizing the whole energy available on this earth. We should stop conquering countries and establishing our own imperialism. We should take this world one and we should see that everyone who is alive on this earth must have the taste of all developments on the side of science and technology. The nature is full of all the potentials which can convert this earth into a living Heaven. We have got mountains, rivers, minerals, coals, irons, different seasons, petroleum, gases, rains, hard working people and if all these potentials are utilized in a proper manner, we can provide to each family a house, all necessities of life, reasonable income and all that, but till date, we had been running on a different route and that is the reason, we could not reach our goal.
If we go down in history, we are surprised to note that this man instead of helping each other had been killing each other and instead of living in peace, they had been wasting most of their time in indulging in wars and killing each other. The history of this man could not be written in ink, but it had been written in blood of this man and now it has started stinking and giving out bad smell. The man must realize his follies and should start walking on the right path. This is the best time for him and he knows that much power is in his hand with which he is in a position to turn this land into Heaven.
The present set of countries should be abolished and all the countries should come down and form one world level government. And all these countries should become just administrative units in that world level government. This is the first step which the people should take so that they could be at peace and the word 'war' should be written off from all the dictionaries because this world is the base of all our troubles. Who invented this world and why he established this war process, is not known to us, but this word had created and established so many problems for us. The wise people of the world must try to abolish this word because till this word is there in our books, we shall never stop fighting and till this fighting system exists, we shall never be able to utilize all the natural resources for the advancement of this life on this earth. The poor shall suffer and the rich shall become more rich. If we are imagining about the concept of Heaven, we should start establishing Heaven on this earth and we should lay our eye on each family and each family should be allowed to grow with wealth and all that they need for proper development of each member of the family.
Science and technology should not be utilized for destruction, but should be utilized for improvement. The people on this earth should start believing in guidelines given in their religious books where it had been laid down that God is one and He is our parent and we all are His children and member of one family. This is the only out way on which we should work and we should not delay this matter any more. We are already late and had we started in time, we could have brought God on this earth and He would have started living with us.
