We live in a society where everything about ladies are prioritized, Where ladies are regarded as the weakest vessels and thus handled as such. But however there are still people who are of the opinion that all gender are the same and has failed to give ladies the minimum respect even in their weakest point... So my question is why the statement Ladies first when it is not been upheld?

"Ladies first" is a sexist term, usually derived from the idea of "gentlemen" who are supposed to treat women in a certain way. Gentlemen's behavior towards women is utterly sexist and misogynistic.
This behavior arrives from the opinion that women are somewhat weak mentally and physically. That they are lower in a hierarchy so they have to be patronized with such behaviour.

Thanks for your comment but the question still remains whether they are really being prioritized?

On a small scale by oblivious sexists, yes. On a large scale as a society, no.
But we have to remember that a lot of women expect to be treated in a sexist ways as they are brainwashed by a sexist culture that it is the behavior that they should expect from men.
