Abstract	Violence in politics poses a significant obstacle to women's participation in the field. It not only discourages women from pursuing political careers but also makes it challenging for those actively engaged in politics. Moreover, it tarnishes the reputation of women in the political landscape. In some cases, political violence is also employed to target women perceived as a risk to the established order. Violence in Indian politics is a persistent problem that hinders efforts to make politics more inclusive. Political parties have a crucial role to play in this regard. They should not only talk about non-violence but also actively discourage and condemn any promotion or tolerance of violence in politics. If more women can participate in the political process without any fear, it would be a significant step towards empowering women. It would have a major impact on how politics is conducted and perceived. This could lead to decreased aggressive political behaviour and a significant reduction in the likelihood of violence.
