The gender equality means when the people of all male and female genders have equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities. The sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. An United Nations Organisation (UNO)’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by all its member states in 2015 with 169 targets to reach by 2030. India has adapted these SDGs. Among the 17 goals, the SDG goal 5 is related to ‘Gender equality: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls’. There are 9 targets there in this goal. The coronavirus has exacerbated existing inequalities for women and girls across every sphere from health and economy to security and social protection etc. This article has focused for the assessment of the UNO’s SDG 5 at the international and separately by another data at an Indian levels in order to know to what extent gender equality for females had been achieved. The gender equality for females sustainable development on the whole had been slightly progressing under the SDG 5 at international level.
