In India, the proportion of women in Legislature has been very low, like in Lok Sabha representation of women is only 10 per cent and in the state legislative assemblies the representation is less than 5 per cent of the total strength. Thus, regardingthe women’s participation in Legislature, India ranks last among the nations in the world.

The status of women's representation in India's legislative bodies are as follows: 

(i) Central Legislature: Less than 10% of its total strength are women. 

(ii) State legislatures: Less than 5% of their total strength are women. 

(iii) Panchayati Raj: One-third of the seats are reserved for women.
