Women‘s political participation in grassroot Governance is abysmal in the city, as only 148 of the 2,000 nominated ward sabha members are women. That is, just 7.4% of the city’s ward sabha members are women.
This despite the fact that Greater Chennai Corporation has 101 women councillors among the 200.
