1. Social ills that ail
the Indian society -

2. FOLLOWING ARE THE MOST
DOMINATING ONES:

6. GENDER INDISCRIMINAT

7. GENDERDISCRIMINATION IN INDIA
 In India, discriminatory attitude towards men and women
have existed for generations and affect the lives of both
genders. Although the constitution of India has granted
men and women equal rights, gender disparity still
remains. Gender discrimination violates human rights.
These are mostly seen in family land sharing among
sisters and brothers.
 There is specific research on gender discrimination mostly
in favour of men over women. Due to a lack of objective
research on gender discrimination against men, it is
perceived that it is only women who are suffering. Women
are perceived to be disadvantaged at work. Indian laws on
Rape, Dowry and Adultery have women's safety at heart,
but these highly discriminatory practices are still taking
place at an alarming rate.

9. One of the ugly realities of the 21st century is the persistence of a serious
gap between the wages of Working men and women around the world.
Advanced economies of the United States andWestern Europe also still
continue to struggle to achieve a fair wage balance between men and
women workforce. However, when it comes to developing economies
like India, the size of gender-based wage disparities is far more striking.
The recent survey findings by the World Economic Forum (WEF) put the
spotlight on India, ranking it among the bottom 10 countries in the
world in terms of women’s participation in the economy.The WEF report
reveals a shocking disparity between the wage structure of men and
women in corporate India.The average annual income of a woman in
India is US$ 1,185, compared to US$ 3,698 for the men employed in the
India’s corporate sector.
This translates to an average woman’s pay of less than one-third of the
average man’s pay in India.

11.  First, education is a human right, enshrined in the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights and the United Nations Convention on
the Rights of the Child. Second, girls’ education is a strategic
development investment – evidence shows that girls’ education brings
a wide range of benefits not only for the girls themselves but also for
their children and their communities, as well as society at large in
terms of economic growth.
 TheWorld Bank’s 2012WORLD Development Report on Gender
Equality and Development drew attention to the fact that there are
still 31 million girls out of school
 Still, major gaps remain between boys and girls. In Africa and South
Asia for example, boys remain 1.55 times more likely to complete
secondary education than girls. Many countries will not meet the
education Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015

12. I want to study and I will study , for its my
right and the confinements of this male
dominating society cant stop me……….

13. REASONS OF GIRLS DROP OUT FROM SCHOOLS IN
INDIA

14. FEMALE INFANTICIDE- A
HENIOUS CRIME

15. FEMALE FOETICIDE
 Female foeticide is the act of aborting a foetus because it is female.
The frequency of female foeticide is indirectly estimated from the
observed high birth sex ratio, that is the ratio of boys to girls at birth.
The natural ratio is assumed to be between 103 to 107, and any number
above it is considered as suggestive of female foeticide. According to
the decennial Indian census, the sex ratio in the 0 to 6 age group in
India has risen from 102.4 males per 100 females in 1961, to 104.1 in
1981, to 107.8 in 2001, to 108.8 in 2011. The child sex ratio is within the
normal natural range in all eastern and southern states of India, but
significantly higher in certain western and particularly
northwestern states such as Punjab, Haryana and Jammu &
Kashmir (118, 120 and 116, as of 2011, respectively High birth sex ratio
and implied female foeticide is an issue that is not unique to India.
Even higher sex ratios than in India have been reported for the last 20
years in China, Pakistan, Vietnam, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia and
some Southeast European countries. There is an ongoing debate as to
whether these high sex ratios are only caused by female foeticide or
some of the higher ratio is explained by natural causes.

16. The child sex ratio has dropped from 945
females per 1000 males in 1991 to 927
females per 1000males in 2001.
Estimated that 50 million girls and women
are missing from India's population because
of termination of female foetus.
Female foeticide in India increased by
49.2%.

17. CORRUPTION IS AUTHORITY PLUS MONPOLY
MINUS TRANSPARENCY

18. THE EVIL OF CORRUPTION
PLAGUES INDIA
 Corruption In India
 Corruption is a global evil. Corruption in India is the main problem since
Independence. Mostly underdeveloped and developing countries are
greatly effected by corruption. Corruption is closely associated with
bribery which means given or take profit for some illegal work.
Corruption has progressively involved in every sphere of Indian society.
Corruption is a cancer that is not restricted to any particular political
party. It infects the whole system. An honest politician has become an
oxymoron. In India, people with an honest image are very few. In India,
There are a bunch of scams often in the Indian administration i.e. Bofors
scam, Hawala Case, Fodder Scam,Taj Corridor scam, Satyam Scam,
Commonwealth games scandal etc. According to the Corruption
Perception Index 2009 Report released byTransparency International,
India's rank is 84th among 180 countries effected with corruption.The
corruption methods also improve with the development of the nation.

20. NO LAW GOVERNS CORRUPTION……

22. INDEED A VERY HARD
FACT TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THESE MEN BY
HITTING GIRLS WANT TO
PROVE THEIR
MASCULINITY OR
FOOLISHNESS……..

23.  Domestic violence (also domestic abuse, spousal
abuse, intimate partner
violence, battering or family violence) is a pattern
of behavior which involves violence or
other abuse by one person in a domestic context
against another, such as
in marriage or cohabitation. Domestic violence can
take a number of forms which may include the
following physical, emotional, verbal, economic an
d sexual abuse, which can range from subtle,
coercive forms to marital rape and to violent
physical abuse that results in disfigurement or
death.

24. The Protection of Women from DomesticViolence Act 2005 is
an Act of the Parliament of India enacted to protect women from
domestic violence. It was brought into force by the Indian
government from 26 October 2006.The Act was passed by the
Parliament in August 2005 and assented to by the President on
13 September 2005. As of November 2007, it has been ratified by
four of twenty-eight state governments in India; namely Andhra
Pradesh,Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and Odisha. Of about 8,000
criminal cases registered all over India under this act, Rajasthan
had 3440 cases, Kerala had 1,028 cases, while Punjab had 172
cases registered.

25. CHILD LABOUR IN INDIAA
PITIABLE OFFENCE

26. NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF CHILD LABOUR
 ECNOMIC EXPLOITATION : children may
only receive one quarter of adult wages .
 LONG WORKING HOURS: some children
are expected to work for excessive hours .
 LOSS OF EDUCATION AND CHILDHOOD:
children who work give up their education.
 PHYSICAL HARM: increased risk of
accidents , risk of physical violence from
authority and harmful chemicals adversely
effect child’s health.
