Question

Would you consider the anti-arrack movement as a women’s movement? Why?

Answer in Brief

Solution

Yes, we would consider the Anti¬arrack movement as a part of women’s movement to provide a platform for women to discuss private issues of domestic violence :-

1. This movement focused on issues of sexual violence against women either within family or outside.

2. Women joined the campaign against dowry and demanded personal and property laws based on gender equality.

3. These campaigns contributed a great deal in increasing social awareness as well as shifted from legal reforms to open social confrontations.

4. Consequently, movement demanded equal representation to women in politics during the nineties. Hence 73rd and 74th amendments granted reservations to women in local level political offices.

5. Thus, it can be concluded to be a part of women’s movement.
