During the 1970s, India has seen unique new forms of women’s organisations. Whilst during their embryonic stages such organisations were viewed with an element of surprise both in India and the West, they are now regarded as exciting and firmly-rooted, articulating the needs of women from the most suppressed of social and economic classes. Examples include the Self-Employed Women’s Association (SEWA) based at Ahmedabad, the Working Women’s Forum (WWF) in Madras and the Annapurna Mahila Mandai (AMM) in Bombay.
