The violence against women at all the level is very high which affects the women’s health.
The women of area are having various problems related to physical and mental, exploitation and violence against women. They are not well aware about the human right. The sex ratio is very low in Gujarat.
The various stakeholders require the capacity building regarding the human right which can helps to reduce the exploitation of women.
Due to no economic empowerment among the women they could not fight for their rights so women of the area should well aware about the concept of equity and equal right at all stages.
