  7. 7. The gender division refers to the unequal social roles given to men and women, where women are often expected to do housework and child-rearing while men work outside, and where women's work is undervalued. This division is not natural but is created by society's expectations. In politics, women have long been under-represented in legislatures, holding only a small share of seats. To address this, India has taken important steps, especially at the local level: one-third of seats in panchayats and municipalities are reserved for women, which has brought a large number of women into public life and decision-making. There have also been demands to reserve seats for women in state assemblies and Parliament, reflecting a growing recognition that fair representation strengthens democracy.
