The pursuit of women in Indian society has ever been remained a matter of conflict since the time immemorial. A woman is supposed to play so many roles during her entire lifetime. Traditional male-dominated setup of society wants a woman to play the obedient and submissive role throughout her whole life, having no voice or freedom of her own. While some thinkers and social reformers of the ancient times, seems to be in favour of providing women of Indian society with some freedom, where she may be able to flourish herself as an independent individual. But most of the members of male dominated society and even some thinkers are against the freedom of woman. The modern times have been changed towards the liberty of women where the women are working outside their homes to enjoy economic independence and trying to establish their own independent identity within the society, they live in. But instead of this hard fact, the traditional role is also expected to play from the part of women and is considered as the important aspect of the customs and values of society. Therefore, orthodox thinking is yet prevailed in our community even after the modernity has entered in our society and in our daily lifestyle, which is the main cause of clash between modernity and conventional values of the society.
