However, this demographic shift masks a severe injustice: nearly <strong>half of these women are classified as &#8220;unpaid family workers.&#8221;<\/strong> This non-remuneration, particularly acute in states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, is compounded by the denial of fundamental rights, such as <strong>land ownership<\/strong> (women own only 13-14% of land), and systematic exclusion from <strong>decision-making<\/strong> forums. This creates a fundamental <strong>sociological paradox<\/strong>: women are indispensable to the farm economy yet are invisible in its formal economic and political structures.
