Gender Discrimination in Sports: Depleting Respect of Women Players in India
Dr. Deepti Kohli
Abstract: Gender ratio in sports is highly skewed in India, which has left the female participation in sports as marginal and deficient. So far only five women from the country have brought home the Olympics medals. There are several constraints which are more applicable to women than men in sports. To name some, the meager stipend paid to sports women as compared to men, biasness in receiving sports awards, the lack of women coaches, absence of family support or the issues related to sexual harassment, etc. Some more of such issues have put the condition of women players in dearth. In this paper an attempt has been made to analyze the deteriorating condition of women players under grey areas and the need for the implementation of sports law.
