Abstract: Health is the key to a developed country. Health awareness is very important for living a beautiful and normal life. Taking health precautions is essential for the development of the country. In colonial India, the British government gave more importance to the issue of health awareness. The importance of health education is also noteworthy in the present times. At that time, the British government encouraged women to pursue health education. The importance of health education is also noteworthy in the present times. However the main purpose behind conducting this study is to explore the importance of health education during the British colonial period and in the present day, to examine the obstacles faced by women in gaining entrance to medical colleges in colonial Bengal and in the present- day, to investigate the women’s safety in medical colleges during the British era and in the present time. The researcher has used Qualitative method to complete the research paper in question. So in this case the researcher has done historical and content analysis. From the research paper in question, the researcher has reached the conclusion that, the introduction of women into the field of education during the British era and its exceptional present period, many years later, the violence and brutality against female doctors, presents a barbaric picture. In the present day, due to political anarchy and lack of discipline in medical colleges, female students and doctors are repeatedly being raped and murdered. Which can be called a triumph of degradation rather than progress in a modern technological society. Which is the shame of the present society and Bengal.
