The Gender-related Development Index (GDI) devised by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) - imperfect as it may be - provides a glimpse of a grim scenario.

In other words, the country's record in enabling its female citizens to enjoy the benefits of human development is worse than that of 127 other nations of the world. |
