The Status of Woman in India: Or A Handbook for Hindu Social Reformers is a book written by Dayaram Gidumal in 1889. The book is a comprehensive study of the condition of women in India during the late 19th century. It discusses the various social, cultural, and religious practices that have contributed to the subjugation of women in India, and offers suggestions for reform. The author argues that the status of women in India is closely linked to the social and economic conditions of the country as a whole, and that the emancipation of women is essential for the progress of the nation. The book also examines the role of religion in shaping attitudes towards women, and argues that the Hindu religion has been misinterpreted to justify the oppression of women. The author offers a vision of a new society in which women are treated as equal partners, and in which their rights are fully respected. Overall, The Status of Woman in India is an important historical document that sheds light on the struggles of women in India, and offers a blueprint for social reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
