Women Political Representation
Women Political Representation
Women’s Political Representation: Feminist Movement suggests that unless women control power, their problems will not get adequate attention. For this, more women are needed to be elected as representatives. In India, the proportion of women in the Legislature has been very low. The percentage of elected women members in Lok Sabha has crossed 10% of its total strength in 2009 for the first time. Their share in State Assemblies is less than 5%.
In this respect, India is behind the averages for several developing countries of Africa and Latin America. Even when women become Chief Minister or Prime Ministers cabinets are largely all male. To solve this problem, India has reserved one-third of seats in local government bodies, i.e. panchayts and municipalities, for women, As a result, now there are more than 10 lakh elected women representatives in rural and urban local bodies.
Women’s organisations and activists have been demanding a similar reservation of at least one-third seats in the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies for women. The Upper House, Rajya Sabha has passed Women Reservation Bill (WRB) on 9th March, 2010 but the Lower House, Lok Sabha has yet to pass the bill because there is no consensus over this among all political parties. Gender division as a form of social division becomes a political agenda.
#Feminist Movement- The radical womens movements are known as Feminist movements & It suggests that Unless women control power , Their problem will Not get adequate Attention, So they started demanding to have Seats in Lok Sabha and state assemblies for women.
