Abstract

Democracy is misnamed without participation of the marginalized and disadvantaged sections of the citizenry in the political process. In most of democratise of world women found to be the most secluded community in the political process. Democracy to be participating needs gender equality in political recruitment. Political participation and empowerment of women still continue to be the most pertinent and dominant public policy debate in India. Political participation of women in grass root democracy in India was highly deplorable till the passing of 73rd constitutional amendment of 1992. The Act for the first time in the annals of local self government provided for gender equality in grass root democracy in India. The present paper analyses the paradigm shift in nature and extent of political participation of women of India in grass root democracy in the aftermath of 73rd constitutional Amendment. The paper highlights the pioneering role of Odisha in the direction of women empowerment in grass root democracy and engendering local self governance.
