Answer: True.

After independence the Constitution gave women equal rights, including the right to vote. Laws such as the Hindu Code Bill, the Dowry Prohibition Act and the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act (2005) were made. The 73rd and 74th amendments reserved seats for women in local self-governing institutions (raised to 50% in Maharashtra). These efforts aimed at women’s empowerment.
