Participation of women in Indian politics: A political analysis

Under the presented article, the role of women in Indian politics has been studied from a political perspective. In this research paper, the participation of women in politics, the present situation, problems and the political future of women have been studied. The participation of women in present politics is not the same as it was twenty years ago. Politics has been a formidable task in the history of the world. Politics has exploited people, shed blood in the name of protecting religion and protecting the lives and property of people. Therefore, politics has been the arena not only of common men but also of men who behave harshly and cruelly. Politics has been active with the physical strength of men and the ego arising from it. Therefore, the participation of women of comparatively soft nature in politics has been less all over the world. The participation of women in politics has been an exception not only in India but in the history of the entire world. Since independence, the percentage of participation of women in politics has gradually improved. First of all, the principle of gender equality has been proposed in the Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Fundamental Duties and Directive Principles of the Indian Constitution. The Constitution has not only given equal status to women but has also empowered the state to take measures of positive discrimination in favour of women, which is also needed today. In other fields, women are facing challenges in an energetic and concrete manner, establishing their dominance. New dimensions of politics are being created in which women are being encouraged equally, even if it is only at the Panchayat level. The village Sarpanch has made women candidates win in many Panchayat level elections and opened new doors of progress.

Abstract

Under the presented article, the role of women in Indian politics has been studied from a political perspective. In this research paper, the participation of women in politics, the present situation, problems and the political future of women have been studied. The participation of women in present politics is not the same as it was twenty years ago. Politics has been a formidable task in the history of the world. Politics has exploited people, shed blood in the name of protecting religion and protecting the lives and property of people. Therefore, politics has been the arena not only of common men but also of men who behave harshly and cruelly. Politics has been active with the physical strength of men and the ego arising from it. Therefore, the participation of women of comparatively soft nature in politics has been less all over the world. The participation of women in politics has been an exception not only in India but in the history of the entire world. Since independence, the percentage of participation of women in politics has gradually improved. First of all, the principle of gender equality has been proposed in the Preamble, Fundamental Rights, Fundamental Duties and Directive Principles of the Indian Constitution. The Constitution has not only given equal status to women but has also empowered the state to take measures of positive discrimination in favour of women, which is also needed today. In other fields, women are facing challenges in an energetic and concrete manner, establishing their dominance. New dimensions of politics are being created in which women are being encouraged equally, even if it is only at the Panchayat level. The village Sarpanch has made women candidates win in many Panchayat level elections and opened new doors of progress.
