A perusal of the criminal laws and personal law reveals that laws adopt a protectionist and paternalistic approach for empowering and providing autonomy to women. Women are the foremost vulnerable and weaker section of the society and have continuously been looked down as an artifact which might be used, re-used and abused. This text highlights the standing women within the society and therefore the nature and magnitude of violence happening against women across the planet. Numerous legislations implemented in our nation for the protection of girls and women against violence have conjointly helped in removing this evil from the society. This paper discusses on issues at the core of gender justice. This paper further argues on the step taken on different level to increase the possibility of autonomous decision. In conclusion, it is argued that law need to create just social conditions and institutions that guarantee freedom from socially imposed disabilities, and subsequently, strengthen autonomy in decision making.
