| Indian Constitution and many of the legislations emphasized gender equality. But, in reality gender equality is not achieved and females are getting lower status in society. Employment, especially in teaching is increasingly participating by women in modern days. Teaching profession gave women economic independence. The present study is based on survey of 500 women teachers working in primary schools in Gulbarga district on whether they have achieved gender equality. It was found that women teachers have gained equal status in their families, but not in society, as majority of the women teachers are getting inferior treatment from their male colleagues. |
