Abstract

Women, constituting nearly half of India's population, are crucial for the nation's economic growth. Gender equality as a core global agenda, is encapsulated in the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 5, which focuses on gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. Despite educational advancements, women in India continue to face significant barriers in other areas. Therefore, it is imperative to implement relevant legal instruments and policies to support environment-friendly agricultural practices, benefiting both ecological sustainability and women's economic participation. Judicial pronouncements related to women also contribute to sustainability and women's participation in labour.
