Answer 1

Answer:

Introduction:- India is a unique state of multi culture, caste, religion, custom and conventions based on the hierarchy system of India’s age old culture. India’s multicultural setup may facilitate the power holder and caste wise high rung people and it may not be suitable to lower class people. The 73rd Amendment of the Constitution is a step forward to ensure and provide empowerment of women in general and Dalit women in particular, and it has given fillip to create political space for them by being the partners of the development process at grass root level. The representation of women in the institutions of local government has been facilitated through affirmative action, where one third of the seats have been reserved for women. This raises issues related to the representation of gender interests and the constraints on such representation.Women's Empowerment refers to the process by which women acquire due recognition on par with men, to participate as a partner with human solemnity in the development process of the society through the political institutions. In India, although some prominent women are in the forefront of Indian politics like Sonia Gandhi, Jayalalitha, Mamata Banerjee and Mayawati, the participation of women in governance is very small and their presence in the political system is insignificant.The plural connotations of Indian society has produced variations and differential participation in the local governance based on the age, sex, caste, class, gender and the patriarchy. It is also pertinent to note how these factors influence the participation of different social categories in the decision making processes. It is also quite interesting that the socially and politically excluded collectivises respond to the changing conditions and take up the challenges to find their new identities. In this process of identification of ‘images’ independent of caste, gender and patriarchy have caused holocaust leading to tensions and conflicts. The conflict of interests from traditional-conservative values with that of democratic egalitarian values is a major thrust of enquiry.
