Description

This comprehensive study by Routledge examines the transformative impact of India's 1992 Constitutional Amendment requiring one-third reservation of positions for women in village panchayats. Drawing on extensive field research across Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, the book presents findings from interviews with 1,200 panchayat representatives and community members. It documents the awareness, motivation, perceptions and participation levels of newly elected women in panchayats following the Amendment, alongside follow-up surveys tracking their experiences over time. The research focuses on states traditionally considered low on social and gender indicators, providing crucial insights into women's political empowerment at the grassroots level and the real-world outcomes of constitutional gender quotas in Indian village governance.

Key Features

Routledge publishes this field-based study with original research across three major Indian states known for low gender development indicators.

The book documents detailed interviews with 1,200 panchayat representatives and community members, capturing firsthand accounts of women's political participation.

Follow-up survey methodology tracks the same panchayat participants over time, revealing how women's roles and influence evolved after the Constitutional Amendment.

Analysis covers awareness, motivation and perceptions among newly elected women panchayat members in the first election following the 1992 Amendment.

Research focuses on Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, providing insights into grassroots gender quotas in regions with traditionally lower social development metrics.
