Answer
On the social conditions, there may be very controversial matters which may need
careful revision:
Most important issue is gender justice, particularly within the family.
Women enjoy unequal rights on property inheritance and children.
Equal pay for equal work for both men and women has been inserted in the directive
principles in place of Fundamental Rights.
My recommendation:
The empowerment of women.
To make provisions for inheritance of property in favour of women on equal basis.
(Hi) To make provisions for reservations of seats.
