Andhra Pradesh's new cash incentives for more children signal a policy U-turn, aiming to counter falling fertility and an ageing population. However, critics argue this approach ignores the high costs of raising children, gender inequality, and the need for robust social support systems, potentially reinforcing patriarchal norms rather than addressing demographic concerns effectively.
The Supreme Court has ruled that married daughters are entitled to be considered part of a 'family' for employment or ration shop allotment if their parents die in harness. The court found a UP government order excluding married daughters from the definition of 'family' unconstitutional, citing gender-based stereotypes and the principle of equality.

Apple Inc. lost an early round in a discrimination lawsuit brought in the U.S. by a female engineer from India who says her two managers -- one from her country, the other from Pakistan -- treated her as they would in their own countries: as a subservient.The womanโs case in California state court is the latest to allege workplace bias in Silicon Valley that focuses on cultural prejudices of some tech workers from South Asia. Cisco Systems Inc. is fighting a suit brought by Californiaโs civil rights agency alleging bias against a member of Indiaโs so-called lower castes, known as Dalits.Anita Nariani Schulze is part of the Sindhi minority -- she is Hindu, with ancestry in the Sindh region of what is now Pakistan. Her complaint alleges that her senior and direct managers, both male, consistently excluded her from meetings while inviting her male counterparts, criticized her, micromanaged her work, and deprived her of bonuses, despite positive performance evaluations and significant team contributions.Schulze claims the managersโ animus reflects sexism, racism, religious bias and discrimination on the basis of national origin. The Sindhi Hindu nationality is โknown for its technical acumenโ and its gender equality, she says, which โexacerbated the managersโ discriminatory treatment.โIn a tentative ruling on Wednesday, Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Sunil R. Kulkarni rejected Appleโs request to toss out the suit. While not ruling on the merits of the case, Kulkarni said Schulze had adequately supported her legal claims. Apple had argued her claims werenโt specific enough and were based on stereotypes.But the judge rejected Schulzeโs request to represent a class of female Apple employees who suffered job discrimination over the last four years. He agreed with Apple that she didnโt show a pattern of discrimination that could be applied to a broader group.It wasnโt clear from the courtโs docket whether the judge will hold a hearing Thursday before issuing a final ruling.Apple didnโt immediately reply to a request for comment.In the Cisco case, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing alleged that two Indian employees at the San Jose-based company discriminated against a Dalit co-worker on the basis of caste.Cisco has denied the claims, insisting it has โzero tolerance for discrimination.โ It also said the lawsuit should be tossed out because caste isnโt a protected category under U.S. civil rights law.
