A government survey from 2022 suggests that girls under the age of 15 years spend over 21 minutes more than boys in unpaid labor. The differences get starker once they cross the age group of 15 when the women spend around six hours a day more than their male counterparts doing unpaid housework. This includes chores and taking care of children. The man in that age group spends around fifty minutes on unpaid work.
