Any society’s ability to advance depends on the economic liberation of both men and women. Regarding women in society, the ancient Indian social structure always had a noble and respectful stance. In the early Vedic period, women had a respectable, dignified, and noble position, rank, and location. They were granted the right to engage in outdoor activities on a level playing field with boys. In order to understand in depth the position, status, and gender equality of women that were in practice in ancient India, this paper attempts to reflect the status and position of women and gender equality right from the later Vedic period, with special references to the Indus Valley Civilization, epics, religious literature and such other literature of ancient India. – Reproduced
