Abstract
India is the largest democracy in the world. The successful execution of democracy demands on over all participation and representation of all sections of the people. The analysis of the democratic system and representation of various sections of population in our country reveals that the participation of women in political process has been far below their counterpart. The reasons for this are well known which include tradition, psychology, lack of encouragement and preoccupation with democratic affairs. Their representation and participation is a prerequisite for the success of our politico-social system. However, it is not true that women are not represent in our political system. But such representation is not the representation of all sections of women. India has yet to manage notably limited success reflecting this imbalances, with women currently holding 11.23 per cent in Lok Sabha. All though India was one of the 1st democratic nations to grant women to vote, women are neither represented in the legislative spaces nor contribution to towards the formation of national laws.
