Additional information

Issued to mark the United Nations Decade for Women (1976–1985), this piece was part of India's broader FAO coin program — a series that used circulation coinage as a vehicle for publicizing agricultural and social development goals. The 1980 date places it squarely in the years when Indira Gandhi had returned to power following the Congress Party's defeat and subsequent comeback, a period of renewed emphasis on rural development policy.
