Rachel Maner's Peer Review
Lead: Your article looks great so far! I'm a little confused about your lead though. I believe it is the "Formation Objectives" subject, which is great, but it looks like you don't have a lead. Maybe move it to the top? But otherwise it looks great! Context: Your article looks great! I did find one tiny grammatical error so far and that is under the "NFW Strongly Condems..." subject, you have "she received a negative responses". But other than that you have done a great job with your article! References: I'm not sure exactly what it means, but one reference says its missing a title, but other than that they all look complete! Great job! --Rachel.maner (talk) 23:34, 18 April 2018 (UTC)Rachel Maner

Background
Women in India

The fight for women's rights is a complicated societal issue in India today. The status of women is making strides towards gender equality, but women continue to battle with patriarchal standards. Despite the steps towards gender equality, women still face abuse from society. India has a high rate of rapes, while physical assault and acid attacks are on the rise as well. The National Women's Front was founded with the hope of empowering women in the fight for justice and equality.

History of the Organization

India has been independent for several decades, but the fight for gender equality and women empowerment continues. Although NGOs and humanitarian organizations lend support to women's rights in India, but western approaches to feminism may not provide the relief necessary. . In 2009, the National Women's Front was launched to "create a platform for women through which women can stand up against injustice and fight for their rights". The organization started and worked in three states, but is now working within eight states. The aim is to provide support and encourage women living in rural communities that are often overlooked by the government to fight for their equality.
