Abstract
This study delves into the heart of Pokhara Metropolitan City, Nepal, unfolding the intricate dynamics of women's political participation, a realm traditionally dominated by a patriarchal system. It probes deeply into how societal norms, education levels, and the mechanisms of political empowerment intersect to shape the experiences of women in politics. The study reflects an intense picture of the barriers that women face, such as entrenched patriarchal attitudes and systemic biases, while also spotlighting the transformative power of education and self-motivation in navigating these hurdles. Through a blend of quantitative and qualitative methodologies, the study meticulously examines the demographic diversity, political involvements, and societal perceptions surrounding female politicians in Pokhara. It unveils a complex embroidery where factors like education, self-employment, and party affiliation intertwine, influencing women's political journeys. The findings highlight a disconnect between legal mandates for gender representation and the actual empowerment of women in political spheres, exposing the shortcomings in current approaches to achieving genuine gender parity in governance. This study is pivotal in enriching the discourse on gender equality in political representation. It underscores the need for strategies that go beyond mere numerical inclusion, advocating for an environment where women's voices are not just heard but are influential in shaping policies. The insights gleaned from Pokhara's experience provide valuable lessons for other regions and nations striving towards more inclusive and equitable political systems, where the presence of women in politics is both normative and transformative.
