Problems of Widows in India

P Adinarayana Reddy (Author)

Synopsis In India widowhood is not just transition from one marital status to another after the death of the husband. Entering into widowhood is more hazardous, painful and humiliating to women than to a widower because of the discrimination, ritual sanctions of the society against widows. With the result, widows in India not only suffer with social and economic sanctions but also face many psychological consequences, loneliness and in many cases deprivation causing emotional disturbances and imbalance. This book is the result of the first seminar organised by the Institute of Development Research Alternatives, Tirupati.
