It looks at the impact of the 73rd Amendment to India's constitution, which introduced reservations in the political arena for women. The Panchayati Raj Act of 1992 reserved one third of all Sarpanch positions for women, and granted constitutional status to the Panchayat system, outlining its specific functions and jurisdiction. This book enhances existing scholarship on the impact of these changes in that it provides the opportunity for women Sarpanches from Haryana to speak for themselves and reflect up. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed November 8, 2017). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Women|xPolitical activity|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008113642|zHaryana.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80090473-781 650 0 Panchayat|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2008108860|zHaryana.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n80090473-781 650 0 Women mayors|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh88000075|zIndia|zHaryana|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n80090473-781|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 0 Women|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2010118387|zHaryana|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n80090473-781|xSocial conditions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008850 650 7 Women|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1734136 650 7 Panchayat.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1051962 650 7 Women mayors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1178132 650 7 Women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1176568 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 Women.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001509 650 7 Womyn.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001516 651 7 India|zHaryana.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1209442 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026049 700 1 Chakravarty, Kavita,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /no2017092087|eauthor. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1539959|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
