If you live in India, this is rather an absurd thing to posit, since it's once of the most patriarchal cultures in the world.
Patriarchy is about more than gender dynamics however, it's a larger social system of social stratificaton and hierarchy. It is the source of all social ills, including racism, homophobia, sexism, abelism, etc.
“FOR 5000 years, humans have grown accustomed to living in societies dominated by the privileged few. But it wasn’t always this way. For tens of thousands of years, egalitarian hunter-gatherer societies were widespread. And as a large body of anthropological research shows, long before we organized ourselves into hierarchies of wealth, social status, and power,these groups rigorously enforced norms that prevented any individual or group from acquiring more status, authority, or resources than others.*
