Equity is one of the four pillars that support the idea of Human Development. The concept of ‘equity’ states that everyone gets equal access opportunities. It means that whatever opportunities are available must be equal irrespective of gender, race, income and caste of the individual. But this concept is not maintained in most of the societies and discrimination on these grounds is a common practice.
