This forms the foundation of women&#8217;s rights in India. Since we gained independence, many laws have been created to protect human rights for women in India and address women-specific issues\u2014while modern initiatives like <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/earn\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"4926\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">refer and earn<\/a><\/strong> programs are also helping women become more financially aware and independent in today\u2019s digital age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent surveys show that about 1 in 3 Indian women have faced some form of violence from their husbands. This shows why knowing about rights for women in India is so important. When women understand their rights and have access to tools like a reliable <a href=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">investment platform<\/a> they can better protect themselves and contribute more to society and the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what are the women\u2019s rights in India?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lxme.onelink.me\/95JV\/mymoneytab5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"812\" height=\"86\" src=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Web-Blog-Banner_Right-to-Invest.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Web-Blog-Banner_Right-to-Invest.png 812w, https:\/\/lxme.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Web-Blog-Banner_Right-to-Invest-300x32.png 300w, https:\/\/lxme.in\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Web-Blog-Banner_Right-to-Invest-150x16.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 812px) 100vw, 812px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Right_to_Equal_Pay\"><\/span><strong>1. Right to Equal Pay<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Equal Remuneration Act of 1976 is an important law that protects women&#8217;s rights in India at work. This law says that employers must pay equal money for equal work, no matter if you&#8217;re a man or a woman. Even with this law, women still often get paid less than men for the same work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does this law cover?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Employers cannot discriminate when hiring<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Women should get the same pay as men for similar work<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Women should have equal chances for promotions and training<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent studies show that women in India still earn about 19% less than men for doing the same jobs. The government has set up special complaint offices where women can report unequal pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you face pay discrimination, you can file a complaint with the Labour Commissioner in your state. Employers who don&#8217;t follow this law can be fined between \u20b910,000 to \u20b920,000 or face up to one year in jail, or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the gender wage gap, it is important that women start investing to make their money work for them. You can start your investment journey with <a href=\"https:\/\/lxme.in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lxme<\/a>, an investment platform for women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Right_to_Dignity_and_Respect\"><\/span><strong>2. Right to Dignity and Respect<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every woman has the right to be treated with dignity and respect. This is one of the fundamental rights for women in India. The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act (2013), often called the POSH Act, helps protect women from harassment at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This right includes protection against:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sexual harassment at your workplace<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stalking and inappropriate watching<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unwanted photographs or videos<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Disrespectful or demeaning treatment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The law requires all organizations with 10 or more employees to have a committee that handles harassment complaints. According to police records, more women are now reporting crimes against them, which means more women know about their rights and how to use them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you face harassment at work, you can complain to your workplace committee. If your organization doesn&#8217;t have one, you can go to your district&#8217;s committee. For more serious offenses, you can go to the nearest police station or use the government&#8217;s online complaint system called SHe-Box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Right_to_Property_and_Inheritance\"><\/span><strong>3. Right to Property and Inheritance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hindu Succession Amendment Act of 2005 was a big step forward for rights for women in India related to property. This law gave daughters equal rights in family property, fixing the old unfair system where sons got more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Important points about property rights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Daughters now have equal rights in family property<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Widows have the right to inherit their husband&#8217;s property<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Women have rights over agricultural land too<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Your property rights are protected whether you&#8217;re married or not<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a property dispute, you can go to civil courts or contact the National Commission for Women for guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Maternity_Benefits\"><\/span><strong>4. Maternity Benefits<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maternity Benefit Amendment Act of 2017 improved human rights for women in India by giving working mothers more time off after having a baby. Before this change, women got 12 weeks of paid leave, but now they get 26 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These benefits include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>26 weeks of paid leave for your first two children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>12 weeks of paid leave for any more children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>12 weeks of leave for mothers who adopt children under three months old<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Options to work from home after your leave ends<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Daycare facilities at workplaces with 50 or more employees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These better benefits have helped almost 1.8 million working women across India. The law says employers must tell women about these rights when they hire them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your employer doesn&#8217;t give you these benefits, you can complain to the Labour Commissioner. Employers who break this law can be fined \u20b950,000 to \u20b9100,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Protection_Against_Domestic_Violence\"><\/span><strong>5. Protection Against Domestic Violence<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act (2005) is an important law that safeguards women&#8217;s rights in India at home. This law protects women from physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, and financial abuse by family members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This law helps women to get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Protection orders to stop abusers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The right to stay in their home even after reporting abuse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Child custody orders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Money for damages and medical expenses<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Financial support through maintenance orders<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>During the COVID-19 pandemic, domestic violence complaints more than doubled, showing how important these protections are. The government has set up a special helpline (1091) and support centers across districts to help women facing violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you face domestic violence, you can contact Protection Officers, support services, or directly apply to local magistrates. You can also call the 24-hour Women Helpline (1091) or the domestic violence helpline (181) for immediate help.
