Question

why do you think there are only 61 women members in the 16th Lok Sabha?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The 16th Lok Sabha had  61 women leaders  compared to 59 women MPs elected in the previous General Elections.

Women leaders account for only  11 per cent of the 543 parliamentarians, while 89 per cent of seats are being represented by men.

Of the 543 MPs elected, 61 are women. This was the highest number of women MPs elected to the Lok Sabha in the history of the country, although by a small margin," according to a report by PRS Legislative Research.
