Role of Women in Indian Freedom Movement
www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 4 April 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 ROLE OF WOMEN IN INDIAN FREEDOM MOVEMENT Shally Rani Research Scholar Political Science Desh Bhagat University, Amloh(Punjab), India Abstract: The history of Indian freedom struggle would be incomplete without mentioning the contribution of women. The sacrifice made by the women of India newline will occupy the foremost place. The history of freedom struggle is replete with the saga of sacrifice, selflessness, bravery of women. Many of us don’t know that there were hundreds of women who fought side by side with their male counterparts. They fought with true spirit and undismayed courage. The Indian women broke away from various restrictions and got out of their traditional home-oriented roles and responsibilities. So, the participation of women in the freedom struggle and National awakening is simply incredible and praiseworthy. However, it is not easy for women to fight as warrior’s in the male dominating society. Even though females tried to change the perception of such orthodox people who thought women are meant to do only household chores. Moreover, females not only sacrifice their lives but also combat such issues. Rani Laxmi Bhai was one of such women who fought against British role by mitigating all odds, hence this paper entitles to highlight the legacy that women showed in the history by showing their fierce nature. Keywords: Indian, Women, Freedom movement, Role, Society INTRODUCTION In the pre-independence period, the status of women within the country was in a deprived state. The major cause of this was, there was a prevalence of male dominance. -
