How did newly developed political consciousness help to improve the status of women in India?

Now a days, our government is working to improve the status of the women in our country. There are many steps in this direction. One of them is “The Equal Remuneration Act”, 1976 which provides equal wages to all. Now women get wages equal as men for same work. The gender issue is also being taken seriously by the government. Schemes like Beti Bachao Beti Padhao aim towards increasing female literacy and decreasing female infanticide.
