From the early twentieth century, they formed political pressure groups to push through laws for female suffrage (the right to vote) and better health-care and education for women. Women from all communities joined various kinds of nationalist and socialist movements from the 1920s.
In the twentieth century, leaders such as Jawaharlal Nehru and Subhas Chandra Bose lent their support to demands for greater equality and freedom for women. Nationalist leaders promised that there would be full suffrage for all men and women after Independence. However, till then they asked women to concentrate on the anti-British struggles.”
