Abstract

The present study analyzed women’s role with respect to women's interest protection in their respective affiliated political parties. The study attempted to inquire about support and encouragement to women political workers from their respective families and political parties in the electioneering process. In so doing, this study examined women’s role in policy agenda and resource allocation for women’s equal access to education and health. A cross-sectional research design was used to accomplish the current study. A sample of 231 women on reserved seats was interviewed. A stratified random sampling technique of probability was used for sample selection. Interview Schedule was used as a data collection tool, which consists of Likert scale questions. The data was analyzed by SPSS 21 version software, univariate analysis was established by analyzing simple frequencies of the information, while the bivariate association was established by cross-tabulation and binary logistic regression. The study found that socio-cultural impediments restrict women political workers’ roles in their respective affiliated political parties. It may safely be concluded from the findings of the present study that women's political role remained insubstantial with regard to gender equity and equality. Women's political activities are determined by their male counterparts. Practical and strategic gender needs are required to be addressed to enhance women's political participation.
