A woman who has been awarded and symbolized as Sita or Savitri in the mythological symbols of thought, generosity, ardour and patience is not a Puppet from now and does not believe in surviving with the mercy of her male master. The spreading tentacles of feminism have made her strong enough to occupy the centre location of feminist consciousness. The spread of women schooling gave an upward push to the individual consciousness and economic Independence to present an appropriate position and identification of Women in Indian society. She has consciously began taking a contemporary look at herself to discover how she herself allow to exploit her for so long in the name of noble beliefs of sacrifice or stoic sufferings either as a beloved spouse or mother or as a daughter or a woman.
