    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 14 , Issue 6 (Sep. - Oct. 2013), PP 62-65 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.Iosrjournals.Org Promotion of Unopposed Elections in Haryana Panchayats: A Visionary Approach Dr. S. L. Kundu Assistant Professor in Political Science, M.K.J.K. College, Rohtak (Haryana)-India Abstract: The success of democracy depends upon free and fair elections. Elections serve as a means of communication between the public and government. It is a process through which leaders are selected by vote for a political office. The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992 marked a new era in the democratic set up of the country as it created Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) as third tier of the federal set up. It gives considerable attention to the nature of elections for the three levels of panchayati raj institutions. Direct elections are specified for seats at all levels. The act provides for one additional potential avenue of representation and accountability of local government. Unopposed elections are the reflection of mature democratic trend. Keywords: Election, Haryana Panchayati Raj, Panches, Panchayat Samit, Sarpanch, Unopposed Elections,,Zila Parishad. I. Introduction Elections constitute an indispensable political activity and indicate the general will of the common masses as well as provide legitimacy to the government. They are the important mechanism for checking the use of governmental arbitrary power. Election is a process through which the political opinion of the people is shaped. Through elections a modern state creates amongst its citizens a sense of participation in public affairs, and in making the people aware of their rights.

  • Women and Panchayat Elections
    Why some Women are Politically Active: The Household, Public Space, and Political Participation in India Pradeep Chhibber Department of Political Science University of California, Berkeley email: [email protected] Introduction Women, in many societies, are often restricted to the roles inside the house, those of wife and mother. While major changes have occurred in the status of women in some parts of the world in recent decades, norms that restrict women to the home are still powerful in defining the activities that are deemed appropriate for women—and they exclude political life, which by its very nature takes place in a public forum. In the contemporary world, there are regimes that enforce this principle perhaps most severely (the Taliban in Afghanistan has been in the news recently), but it is also a powerful factor in many other countries such as Japan (where there is still a strong expectation that when they marry, women will leave full time employment outside the home)1. Moreover, the impact of home-centered norms for women is not restricted to non-Western countries. The norm that “Woman’s place is in the Home” prevailed in Western societies well into the 20th century and, as this article will demonstrate, it still bears significant influence. In so far as this norm is accepted, it has an inhibiting effect on women’s participation in politics. In India, a large number of women do not work and by implication spend much of their time at home. In India in 1991 only 22 percent of the women were in the workforce as compared to 52 percent of the men (Gopalan and Shiva 2000, 119).

Contents Introduction 4 Methodology 5 Previous Research 7 Acceptance of Violence: 11 Understanding the Cultural & Historical Context Political Economy of Haryana: 15 Changes in Gender Relationships Challenging Socio-cultural Norms 25 and Shifting Gender Relations Women’s Resistance 50 Women’s Options: Property, 55 Education and Employment References 59 Reduction of Violence against Women: Property Ownership and Employment in Rural Haryana Introduction The power structure within the household operating through specific gender hierarchies uses violence as the most potent tool of control and domination. Gender inequality derives its legitimacy and acceptance through the ideological and cultural matrix systems of rural Haryana. The wide scale prevalence of violence in rural households shows how gendered systems interact with other socio- cultural structures, not only to reinforce but to further tighten the existing gender inequalities. In this respect the influence of marital violence has been most pronounced. The present study seeks to determine the effect of property ownership and economic independence of women on the reduction of violence, especially spousal violence, in relation to rural Haryana. It seeks to analyze how and why women my acquire ownership or/and control over land/property/assets or avail of employment opportunities in a deep-rooted patriarchal cultural milieu of northern India which, in practice, is given to negate such acquisitions.
