even today woman does not receive her due respect in the so-called Hindu society that is ridden with much too reactionary ideology. Inhuman atrocities are committed against women every other day. Some orthodox individuals persist in sticking to outdated scriptural canons which derogate women. Why women are mistreated in such a way, is a very tough question to answer. Some scholars assert that the humiliation of women is the handiwork of Aryan social order. When they came down to India they did not bring women with them. They have taken by force women of aboriginal tribes in here. So along with Shudras, women; in their view are impure or untouchable. This is because they push down women to the status of the unwashed. This is because they consider woman just a means of procreation and recreation and command that her jurisdiction be confined to home and hearth only. Shuradas has gone a step further to say that dhol, gavar, shudra aur nari sab tanadan ke adhikari (Drum, unlettered, untouchable, woman are all worth beating). Truly, the way they have exploited woman is most condemnable reality.
