Megha Malvi
Abstract :
After independence since nineties, continuous efforts have been made by the government for the development of tribal society, but most of the government and non–governmental organizations have focused their attention on the improvement of social, economical, health and educational status of the tribal society. The issue of political empowerment of tribal society’s women was neglected. In 1993, through reservation in 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, tribal women got the opportunity to represent one third of the seats in Panchayati Raj system. 231 tribal women representatives from Bhimpur and Multai development blocks of Betul district in Madhya Pradesh have been taken as sample size of the study. Random sampling method is used. In present article, the analysis of participation of tribal women representatives in the panchayat was done on the basis of primary and secondary data. The study describes gender based discrimination that prevents tribal women from actively participating in Panchayat related works.
