When it comes to marriage the timing is not the same for everyone.
Although society usually puts pressure on individuals to get married and
start a family early, over the years, people have had many reasons to get
married later in life. All over the world, people of all genders have more
access to higher education now than ever. This results in people choosing
to focus on their careers and delaying marriage. Also, the fact that many
young people start living alone at an early age makes them develop high
levels of independence. As a result, they do not see the need to commit to
a partner. Women in particular no longer feel the urge to get married fast.
They instead spend more of their youthful days pursuing opportunities to
become more financially independent.
Financial stability is also a factor. A lot of people in their twenties are
not financially stable enough to run a home and fulfill the responsibilities
that come with starting a family – after all, simply organizing a wedding is
already quite an expensive effort. That much financial pressure can be
detrimental to most relationships. As a result, many people decide to wait
until they are financially ready before tying the knot. Nowadays, many
couples prefer to live together before getting married, which provides an
opportunity to experience marriage life without commitment and to figure
out whether they really suit each other. This is especially made possible as
a modern society now accepts these sorts of living arrangements

The All-India Survey on Higher Education (AISHE) reports that the
number of women and men enrolled in Bachelor of Commerce
programmes across the country is now equal — a reversal from the state
of affairs even five years ago. This follows significant strides in other
undergraduate programmes. Not only did women catch up with men in
BSc and MBBS programmes in 2017-18, but they have also gone on to
outpace them in 2019-20. The disparity remains worrying in engineering
and law. Nevertheless, it is safe to say that the rise in gross enrolment ratio
in higher education (from 24.5 per cent in 2015-16 to 27 per cent in 2020),
which measures the proportion of students who transition from secondary
education, is being driven by a sharper relative rise in GER for women.
This is good news, even if these numbers need to be parsed for disparities
of caste and class.
The cloud attached to this silver lining is the pandemic. The economic
shock of the first wave of COVID-19 and a harsh lockdown has been
worsened by the second wave. [1] The disruptive shift to an online mode
of education has disproportionately left out weaker sections of students.
[2] Governments at central and state levels must devise a response to this
challenge, from considering monetary support to girl students to pushing
higher educational institutions to hand-hold them through a difficult time.
Colleges and universities must also keep the gender composition of their
classroom in mind as they embark on the admission process.
The influx of women into higher education is a welcome shift. But, for
many years now, it has added up to a paradox — the appalling labour
force participation rate of Indian women. [3] That is not only a function of
lack of opportunity and education, but also of the cultural values that see
women’s work as primarily circumscribed to home. [4] The COVID-19
pandemic has deepened these inequalities. CMIE data shows that female
labour force participation fell alarmingly in urban areas, where more
educated women are likely to be found, in early 2020 — as employment
shrank and domestic work increased. A critical mass of educated,
employable women is an asset for any economy and society; these are
gains that the state can ill afford to squander.
