Book excerpt: Panchayats are local governments mandated in the Constitution of India. As per the Constitution, a three-tier structure of panchayats is in place across the country, excepting areas where Part IX of the Constitution does not apply. Panchayats are to be instituted, through elections every five years, except in States with a population of less than 20 lakh, where panchayats at two tiers may be created. The Constitution recognizes the gram sabha, i.e. all the electors in a village panchayat. The Constitution provides that seats and offices of chairpersons be reserved for scheduled castes (SCs) and scheduled tribes (STs) in proportion to their respective population, and not less than one-third seats and offices of the chairpersons be reserved for women, including within the SC and ST reservations. Women's increased political participation has yielded positive results. Issues central to development-including health, nutrition, family income and education-have taken center stage as women participate in panchayati raj institutions (PRIs), village development boards, and other governance structures. India has primarily relied upon this method of reservation to ensure women's presence in decision-making bodies. This has increased de jure, but not necessarily de facto, participation. There is a need to encourage women's participation in other kinds of groups and associations which contribute to an atmosphere of leadership by women. This book discusses the background and future possibilities of women and PRIs. [Subject: Gender Studies, India Studies, Constitutional Studies]

Book excerpt: The UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) reflect widespread international acknowledgement that empowerment of women and the achievement of gender equality are matters of human rights and social justice. Today gender disparity and empowerment have come to occupy the centre stage of development debate. Since, independence a number of legislative enactments have helped alleviate the status of women in India but still a lot remains to be achieved. The place and status of women in decision making apparatus needs to be evaluated and empowerment strategies formulated. The enactment of 73rd Amendment Act was a major step towards women s empowerment. The problem of participatory management of welfare schemes can be solved only when the marginalised section of the society come to play a major role in decision making. The scheduled castes in general and the scheduled castes women in particular, continue to lead a life of misery and deprivation. Even though seats have been reserved in favour of SCs women but very little has changed at the ground level. This book is an outcome of a study conducted in Haryana and focuses on the status and participation of scheduled castes women in decision making institutions at the local level i.e. Panchayati Raj Institutions. A number of factors have been identified, which help in understanding the problems in a proper perspective. The case studies, which form part of the book, have made this book very valuable. In short this bok helps in undestanding the various issues at stake due to which the scheduled castes women continue to remain out of decision making institutions at the local level. This book is useful to policy planners, administrators, researchers and students of Decentralized Governance and Gender Justice.
