    Women rights are still better in India compared to Pakistan or Bangladesh. Pretty much due to the country aligning with Socialist principles post independence.

      Pretty much due to the country aligning with Socialist principles post independence.

      Which the BJP have been working to erode in a race backwards to beat out Bangladesh and Pakistan as the most reactionary country on the subcontinent.

        Yes but India is still better than Pakistan at least. It's more akin to the Russian decline regarding social issues post Soviet collapse.

      Heavily dependent on class, region, and ethnicity. Brahman women are better off. Muslim untouchables are still fucked.

        It's far more about Indian culture than laws. The laws drafted by Ambedkar were very Socialist in nature and guaranteed equality to all. Indian culture is very backwards and the BJP has taken the country back several decades since 2014 when it comes to social issues.
