Abstract: Social media has fundamentally changed how people interact, live, and do business. However, because of the ongoing evolution brought on by contemporary technological progress, it might be a double-edged sword. For women throughout the globe, this couldn't be true: despite their struggles with access, language challenges, and safety concerns, social media affords them social, economic, and political strength. This paper examines how gender problems and social media overlap in India. It describes how social media has changed and questions if it has gotten more aware of gender representation in the last ten years. It explores the reasons why women are unable to fully benefit from social media and assesses the country's present policies on online safety. It makes detailed suggestions on how to improve the safety and inclusivity of social media for women in the nation.
