Padole, Priyanka Vishwas ; Shavit, Anna (advisor) ; Reifová, Irena (referee)
Women in parliament long seem to be limited to addressing only certain topics and issues - mostly those that have a 'female-centric' focus. This perspective has been backed by the idea that being women, they are more empathetic, compassionate, honest and liberal. This gives them a better insight into what females want and they are therefore better equipped to address these issues compared to their male counterparts. It is my perspective that female politicians should be looked at beyond this limited scope and addressed as legislators who represent the voice of all people and not only a specific demographic. Using the grounded theory through an exploratory case study method, this thesis focuses on Mahua Moitra and the speeches she made in the Lok Sabha in 2020- 2021. Through this analysis, the thesis gathers what she has contributed to the developing narrative of female political representation in India.
