While mainstream historiography has often marginalized women's involvement, their participation was critical in shaping both the independence movement and the future trajectory of women's rights in India. Women were active in various spheres, including social reform, literacy campaigns, and political activism, and were pivotal in challenging British colonial rule. The late 19th and early 20th centuries, marked by the rise of modern nationalist movements like the Indian National Congress (INC), provided women with a platform to assert their rights and challenge traditional gender norms. Figures such as Sarojini Naidu, Kasturba Gandhi, and Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay exemplified the spirit of resistance, engaging in civil disobedience, boycotting foreign goods, and advocating for constitutional reforms. Women were key participants in significant movements like the Non-Cooperation Movement, Salt Satyagraha, and Quit India Movement, where they not only led protests but also organized grassroots campaigns. Their involvement in these movements was transformative, as it not only contributed to the nationalist struggle but also challenged the prevailing societal perceptions of women. Despite facing repression and violence from colonial authorities, women continued to fight for their rights and social justice. This study highlights the often-overlooked contributions of women in the freedom struggle, underscoring their essential role in shaping India's path to independence and laying the foundation for future battles for gender equality and justice.

The journey of India's environmental policy can be traced back to its post-independence era, where economic growth was prioritized, often at the expense of environmental considerations. Early policy frameworks lacked a coherent environmental focus, with limited institutional mechanisms for protecting natural resources. However, in the 1970s, influenced by the global environmental movement and events like the 1972 Stockholm Conference, India began to formalize its environmental approach, marking the beginning of policy reforms aimed at balancing development with ecological preservation. Important milestones in India's environmental policy include the establishment of the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) in 1985, the promulgation of the Environment Protection Act (1986), and the National Forest Policy (1988), which aimed to curb deforestation and promote sustainable land use. The 1990s and 2000s saw India increasingly engaging with international environmental frameworks, including the Rio Earth Summit (1992) and the Kyoto Protocol (1997), and emphasizing the integration of environmental concerns into the developmental agenda. Despite these advancements, the impact of environmental policies in India remains mixed. While there has been notable success in areas such as wildlife conservation, pollution control, and biodiversity preservation, challenges like deforestation, water scarcity, and industrial pollution persist. The growing pressures of industrialization, urbanization, and climate change present ongoing challenges in policy implementation. Additionally, the tension between economic development and environmental sustainability continues to be a contentious issue. This paper examines the historical evolution of environmental policies in India, assesses their impact on ecological conservation, and explores the ongoing challenges and future directions for achieving a balance between growth and sustainability.

of organized social reform movements even before they became an active force in Indian life. The contribution and
