The pandemic’s devastating effects are unfolding in menacing ways and affecting almost every domain of women’s’ lives to an almost irreparable extent—mental and physical health, income and livelihood, education and career, kinship and childcare, roles and status in society. The present study uses the qualitative method phenomenology, interviewing 12 Indian women on their experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic and how it has affected their lives at home and work. The accounts of these women are then explained and discussed through the lens of feminist movements and related literature of India, juxtaposing their voices with experiences surrounding women of this country during the pandemic. The findings have been subjected to phenomenological analysis which brought out issues related to women’s backbreaking domestic work, mental and physical abuse, effects of patriarchy on their lives, social isolation and poverty.","PeriodicalId":160590,"journal":{"name":"ANTYAJAA: Indian Journal of Women and Social Change","volume":"49 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138596984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, to overcome systemic and structural gendered barriers, there is a pertinent need for systematic efforts to increase women’s access, participation and benefit sharing in livestock keeping. Being a woman livestock keeper with legitimate recognition of contribution and benefit-sharing remains a culture-specific phenomenon that has a bearing on the overall impact of gender-equitable livestock development interventions. A focused phenomenological inquiry was conducted to explore and document the lived experiences of women livestock keepers in rural India. The pathways to becoming a woman livestock keeper run through several hurdles yet well-planned inputs, supportive institutional arrangements and culturally suitable gender-sensitive handholding play enabling roles for women livestock keepers to realize their equitable roles and position themselves in the growing livestock product markets. Furthermore, this study suggests that it is critical to put interventional emphasis on converging multimodal efforts to equip women to effectively bargain and engage in the marketing and benefit-sharing process.","PeriodicalId":160590,"journal":{"name":"ANTYAJAA: Indian Journal of Women and Social Change","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114735008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An estimate made by Singh and Gupta (2011) states that, 90% of women workforce is engaged in informal sector in which 70% come from rural areas that migrate seasonally for short term and return back. Apprehension of contracting dreaded COVID-19 disease and concurrent nationwide lockdowns created uncertainty among millions of labourers compelling them to migrate from cities back to their home towns. Amongst the worst hit by pandemic were women migrants who experienced major burden of family responsibility and forceful restrictions in mobility that further exacerbated their vulnerability in terms of social, mental, physical and economic wellbeing (ILO, 2020). However, along with gross under-reported estimates of women migrants, their reproductive health care needs have largely remained undocumented and politically unattended. This brings forth the term emergence of ‘shadow epidemic’ as a negative outcome of the pandemic, for their inability to access sexual and reproductive health care needs (Singh, 2021). In this comment, I have described women migrant laborers from unorganized sector, the challenges they faced with COVID-19 mitigation activities and the existing gaps in public health services as a part of universal health coverage. Finally, realistic approaches in addressing the gaps in order to reprioritize the sexual and reproductive health needs of otherwise marginalized women.

This exploratory article would aim to fill that empirical gap by focusing on a detailed ethnographic study of Tamil Muslim women in Singapore as gendered racialized bodies, thus examining the actualities and dilemmas of being visibly transnational Muslim women in a diasporic space by unpacking the interconnections between identity and belongingness. This work uses a trans-local lens to understand the transnational experiences and hybridized shape-shifting identities of Tamil Muslim women in a diasporic space like Singapore, thus reconceptualizing transnationalism and diaspora. Using an intersectional lens also gives a new edge in addressing the multiple loopholes and interconnections that come together to impact the everyday experiences of Tamil Muslim women in Singapore. This research would thus contribute to feminist literature and (Tamil diaspora) diaspora literature by exploring intersections of identities such as race, religion, and gender that interplay in relation to transnational belongingness from a female standpoint, that of the Tamil Muslim women in Singapore based on the everyday experiences and realities of the social structure within their local environment.","PeriodicalId":160590,"journal":{"name":"ANTYAJAA: Indian Journal of Women and Social Change","volume":"798 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116417313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to do so, I locate my analysis in two recent controversial judgements—Mahmood Farooqui v. State (Govt. of NCT of Delhi), 2017 and Vikas Garg and others v. State of Haryana, 2017—both of which reveal how judicial discourse produces female (and male) bodies as normalized sites of a distorted sexuality. Further analysis shows the limitations of legal grammar and semantics in envisaging the female body outside of categories existing in relation to men, and the failure of the judicial apparatus when such classifications crumble. To develop this analysis, I chiefly draw upon the writings of scholars of legal feminism and a scrutiny of reports of the Law Commission of India. The purpose of this article is therefore to arrive at an understanding of the subject of the law as not merely a theoretical, objective entity but as a product of a gendered, variable ideological context, thereby exposing the weaknesses of the linguistic construction of the female body and how it affects decisions of the courts.","PeriodicalId":160590,"journal":{"name":"ANTYAJAA: Indian Journal of Women and Social Change","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132586767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
