The underrepresentation of women in India’s Lok Sabha, the lower house of the Indian parliament, has been a longstanding issue that has drawn significant attention from scholars and policymakers alike. The Women’s Reservation Bill, which proposes to reserve one-third of the seats in the Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies for women, has been a subject of intense debate and discussion since its introduction in the late 1990s. The existing literature on the topic provides valuable insights into the impact and implementation of the Women’s Reservation Bill. The study found that the reservation of local government seats for women in India led to a reduction in crimes against women, demonstrating the potential impact of increasing women’s political representation. Similarly, the analysis by the authors of the ‘Gender Audit for Gender Mainstreaming of Coastal and Marine Fishing Community of India’ highlights the low representation of fisherwomen in the legislative assemblies, emphasizing the need for more targeted efforts to ensure the inclusion of marginalized groups in the political process. At the same time, the normative-empirical study on the political rights of women in the Indonesian constitution suggests that a shift from the quota system to a system of reserved legislative seats may be more effective in increasing women. Therefore, different studies show the impact and implementation of the Women’s Reservation Bill, while at the same time, few studies show the growing area of concern where the bill needs to come into effect and work as a voice for women.
