DESCRIPTION
In the last decade or so the empowerment of women has been recognized as a central issue in determining the situational reality of their status. The Government of Indian has declared the year 2001 as women's empowerment year and a lot has been and is being at national and international levels. Yet the question remains unanswered in that despite all the efforts. Why women, particularly the tribal women continue to be so much backward in almost all levels in comparison with their class sisters? The status and empowerment of Tribal Women of Tripura, though much better in comparison with other tribal women of India, is on the line of slow but steady progress. This book analyzes the social, economic, marital and economic status of tribal women of Tripura and attempts to answer the multifarions facts and the obstacles that come in the way of their empowerment. This book can act as a catalyst for stimulating people's campaign for empowering the tribal women of Tripura in reality.
