Abstract
The extent to which women in India occupy sufficient and important leadership positions in the government and hold powerful positions in the political system has a direct bearing on the socio-economic and political development of the nation. With this backdrop, we provide a historical review of women’s participation in and contribution to the government sector since Indian independence; present the current political leadership provided by women in India; highlight the initiatives, legislation, and reforms undertaken by the Indian government for promoting women’s leadership in government; discuss the current issues and trends related to women’s leadership in government positions in India; and suggest potential measures to promote and strengthen women’s leadership in the government sector in India.
