The aim of the book, through these life narratives, is to have an Indian lens to study Indian feminism, which can only be understood better with the stories of such women who not only brought a change in their own lives but also reformed the whole Indian society. Also, these narratives are about the Indian womanhood which basically constitutes the actual meaning of feminism for the Indian women. For a really long time, most of the studies on Indian women have been done through the western ideals of feminism. Our culture, history and challenges have always been different than the west. Hence, it is important to do studies on Indian women, keeping the Indian perspectives in the background. This book, by students of one of the prestigious women's college of University of Delhi, is also remarkable as it is getting published in the centenary of University of Delhi.
