Challenges faced by Women in electoral process
• Denial to cast to Vote- political participation is considered insignificant.
• Missing names from voter list• False voting • Women and those coming from weaker sections are
restrained from making choice to vote, they are forced to cast votes under pressure or dominance
• Women and dalits are made to contest elections as dummy candidates.
• Migration is challenge- as migrant community especially women do not come out to vote
• Election is considered to be a political process where presence of Women is not desirable.
