In India, coal mining women were common in the early 20th century, increasingly regulated from 1929, prohibited from mines in 1937 and reinstated in 1943. The prohibition was reinstated in 1946 and later lifted in 2019. In 2021 Akanksha Kumari became the first woman mining engineer to work in an underground mine in India.

  • In India, coal mining women were common in the early 20th century, increasingly regulated from 1929, prohibited from mines in 1937 and reinstated in 1943. The prohibition was reinstated in 1946 and later lifted in 2019. The earliest Indian women to be employed in coal mine related work were the Bauris, Dhangars and Koras, and were chiefly involved with surface work. With the advent of Indian railways, the Santhal Parganas women became the first women to work inside the coal mines of Raniganj, alongside their men folk. By the end of the First World War 49,500 women worked in underground mines. Between August 1943 and February 1946, during the Bengal famine and Second World War, most worked in the eastern provinces of Bengal and Bihar, numbered around 70,000, and sustained production of coal. In 2021 Akanksha Kumari became the first woman mining engineer to work in an underground mine in India. (en)
