Gender relations and inequality are manifested through the lack of educational issues and the unfair treatment of women and children, thus in many cases forcing women to manage the home, while men are absent working in India various seasonal migration jobs with unsustainable wages. As defined in a classic article, income inequality is “the distribution of total income among the represented population” (Gehring13). In the studies outlined; evidence can conclude that poor gender relations in reality can be contorted into other issues such as overpopulation, child malnutrition, low levels of GDP and GNI. This indeed seems to be true of what India is experiencing today. The prevailing issue of gender inequality has led many down the path to poverty and what many may consider to be the “sweatshop.” The exploited and primary sector in modern India, to which the majority is subjected, is facing many challenging issues such as long working hours, low wages and no benefits which contributes to inequality standards. The National Commission for Unorganized Sector Enterprises (NCEUS), reports that the “sweatshop” is the lowest wage earner in all countries, which is actually seen more often than in India, as many workers have moved to the southern region of India. Workers earn a minimum wage every day, helping to lower growth standards and overpopulation numbers. Workers are also subjected to extremely long hours outdoors for next to nothing where they are located, what Dejanvry may call the “traditional sector.” India's temperature is accurate as it often exceeds 100 degrees during the day and is cooler at night, making this a great inconvenience.
