Abstract

Women's representation in the government will empower women and is required to achieve gender parity. Women, as the conventional caretakers of children, sometimes have a more transparent role than men in advocating for children, which will result in a "double dividend" in terms of the benefits of women's representation. This paper reflects representation of women in State Legislative assemblies and emphasis is given to Bihar, Jharkhand ,Orissa and West Bengal.
