Abstract

Vulnerability has long been accepted as an important factor to introduce the garments of widows as excluded, subjugated, under privileged and underpowered. It affects the ability of the survivors to recover from multidimensional impacts. In this paper the main target is to disclose the real scenario of vulnerable widows and the overall purdah impact on them because purdah terminated the vulnerability of these women in a massive way. The vulnerability is not only an outcome of localized and individual dimensions like age, gender, and marital status but that they have deeper relations with national and global powers who perpetuate institutionalized discrimination in such systems and how they are unable to give those group of women to give these assistance to live with dignity. In that case the widow become more vulnerable; feel lack of insecurity and valueless in the society. Here in this paper the research is divided into three parts-(a) first of all, the relationship between Vulnerability and Widows (b) secondly, the relationship between exclusion and widowhood and (c) finally, The relationship among exclusion, poverty and widowhood.
