Abstract

It was a strange phenomenon to note the restlessness among women to derive the benefits of Western thought and science. They showed extra-ordinary enthusiasm for receiving English education and often worked for its propagation. They aspired to reap the harvest of the progress in Medical Science of the West. Even the women engaged in agriculture and small scale industries in villages could not escape the impact of the West. They were compelled to re-adjust their social pattern as they joined the factories under changed economic conditions. However, such women stood only on the fringes of Indian society.
