Abstract
Statistics regarding the participation of the women at work in Sikkim
has been encouraging. Factors like education, employment opportunities,
reservation in employment, education and political bodies have combined to
achieve this. However, the increase in work participation of women also calls
for a reorganization of the various roles within the household. Based on my
experience as a working woman in an urban setting, this paper attempts to
throw light on the changes in the relations within the family in an urban Bhutia
household vis-à-vis an earlier situation in a Bhutia family while also exploring
the stresses and changes resulting changes in the larger social structure.
