Women remarriage was strictly prohibited: This statement is incorrect. In the medieval period, the practice of women remarriage varied across different regions and communities. While there were certain instances and areas where women's remarriage might have been restricted due to societal norms, it was not universally prohibited.
Matsya Purana authorizes husbands to beat their wives: This statement is correct. Some ancient texts, including certain Puranas, contain verses or sections that reflect patriarchal norms, and in some instances, they mention practices such as the authority of husbands to chastise or discipline their wives. However, these texts should be understood in their historical and cultural context.
Women were not given property rights during this period: This statement is incorrect. While property rights for women were limited in many societies during the medieval period, it is not accurate to say that women were universally denied property rights. Practices varied across regions and communities, and there were instances where women did have access to property rights.
