The correct option is D Assertion is Incorrect but Reason is correct
Violence against women post independence have suppressed to a great extent but they are not completely extinct. Today, there are plethora of laws and legislation and several schemes protecting women from exploitation and cruelty they were subjected earlier.

The violence and exploitation against women has taken complete new forms, although women are allowed to have equal opportunity to work and discrimination against women in giving jobs is diminished still sexual harassment at workplace has become new exploiting method, similarly, domestic violence, obstetric violence (abuse during childbirth), female infanticide, reproductive coercion are exploitation and abuse against women.
