The objective of the present research paper is to analyse the women’s status in contemporary Haryanvi short stories. The article is an attempt to make the study of ever changing role of women in Haryanvi culture. The contemporary Haryanvi short stories have not been paid much attention in this direction so far. These short stories have been taken from the real life which project the new image of women hence these short stories become more significant. These short stories carry deep sensitiveness of uncounted pictures of social reality. Female have been following the man for ages due to the patriarchal social set up of society which is solely responsible for their plight but now she has awakened and wants to equalise her status. In this way, these short stories mark the mode of contemporary changing society. The regional writers present the predicaments which are imposed upon them for ages and while fighting against these predicaments, how they come out of their traditional role as a mother, daughter, sister and wife and acquire many new roles. Generally, female characters are fixed by gender stereotype in our society so that their attempts to transcend this position are often questioned. She has been treated in this way only because of this patriarchal system. It is a hard fact that women have not only been denied their existence as complete human beings; physically and mentally but also have been deprived of the opportunities to express their feelings, fear and distress. Women are eager to set egalitarianism with man. So, modernity is clearly visible in the emergence of contemporary short stories. It is a matter of great regret that even in the era of twenty - first century when Women Empowerment is discussed everywhere, but women are not given freedom as man enjoys in the male dominated society.
