In many conservative Indian families, widows are seen as a liability. Cast out of the family home, they live the rest of their lives in poverty and isolation.
“She becomes a zero and all her powers are lost”, states Dr Giri, explaining how some women’s status change when their husband dies. With no where else to go, thousands come to Vrindavan, city of widows. It was the childhood home of Hindu God, Krishna, who championed downtrodden women. “They come here in search of death”, explains Dr Giri, in the hope they will have a better afterlife

I do not think this issue is that macro that needs to be addressed in a large scale concern.It happens in any society where intricated family relationships do exist.Moreover,this issue is quite regional for the reason that education,customs etc play a big role.
It was indeed a widow who had led India for years ,being in the P.M's office,as P.M and it was none other that Indira Gandhi :)
