ABSTRACT: A girl, a wife, a mother, a grandmother, and an overall woman is a key to a family. The world can never be beautiful without a woman. Women's empowerment is a fundamental human right, essential for achieving gender equality and social justice. Nowadays women have faced so many problems, some of the most common crimes are rape, dowry, sexual harassment, kidnapping, cruelty by husbands, and relatives, assault on women, and sex trafficking. Law is the set of rules imposed to govern the behavior of people. The Indian government is being made to secure the lives of women from the violence, harassment, and dowry of their families and societies and so many initiative programs and various legislation contain several rights and safeguards for women. The rights of women in India can be classified into two or three categories: constitutional rights or provisions, legal rights, and special rights. The constitutional rights are given in the various provisions for women empowerment of the Indian constitution and the legal rights for women are given in the various laws or acts of the parliament and the state legislature. On the other hand, the Indian government is adopting various national policies and plans for women's empowerment. Further India is a democratic country so laws, development policies, plans, and programs are aimed at women's advancement in different fields.
