#But women participation in legislatures is considerable low.
Example::2019 elections 12% women mp’s
This is mainly due to social stigma and winning ability of the candidate
#In many assemblies women legislatures are less than 5%
Example::No women were allowed in politics of Nagaland
#After 73 and 74 constitutional amendments in local bodies and panchayat raj elections women got 1/3 rd reservations as a representatives. Even in few states it is extended to 50%
Example::Bihar
