Four Points in against of the topic

1) It would be discriminatory by just providing tax deduction only to women even men support the family financially, they do also deserve tax deduction.

2) Tax deduction to women will result in loss of Tax revenue to the government.

3) It will result in an imbalance in the salary structure of men and women working in the same profession thus leading to inequality.
