The political participation of women is an indicator through which the extent of the enjoyment of their political rights is measured. It has been realised that without the active participation of women and the incorporation of women’s perspectives at all levels of decision making, the goals of equality- development and peace- cannot be achieved. Therefore, here in the present work an attempt has been made to assess the level of political participation of women legislators in the Uttar Pradesh legislative Assembly from 1980 to 2009 in the light of their work, views and responses. The participation is analysed by measuring their involvement in the process of the Assembly such as through attendance, involvement in committees and involvement in different debates and issues.
