Abstract: The novel coronavirus has disrupted the functions of the whole world and India has borne the brunt of the same. The measures to minimize the risk of this corona virus i.e., lockdown and social distancing have affected the lives of every individual more than the fear of the virus itself. The pandemic has hit everyone but the affects vary from person to person and people from marginalized communities are affected disproportionately, especially the women. The already existing unequal structures of the society are exposed by this pandemic. The affect of lockdown on the educational system across the country, leading to the closures of all educational institutions has further worsened the condition of female education in India. This work deals with the major impact of COVID 19 pandemic on female education in the country.
