Abstract
This project examines the Indian state through feminist theoretical perspectives to understand how gender power relations shape governance, institutions, and policymaking. While the Indian Constitution guarantees equality and justice, feminist scholars argue that state structures often reproduce patriarchal norms. Using liberal, radical, socialist, and intersectional feminist frameworks, this study analyses state institutions, gender-related laws, and welfare policies. It highlights the gap between constitutional ideals and lived realities, especially for marginalised women. The study concludes that achieving gender justice requires structural transformation, inclusive policymaking, and sustained feminist engagement with the state.
