Abstract

Generally women are excluded from the process of political decision-making, particularly in the areas of armed conflict, the role of women in the process of establishing a society is nominal. Equation between women, war, security and peace is not altogether the main subject of study. The absence of female centric narrative (Sant Chantantanjapama) encourages the scholars to conclude that the war is sexually free. While the facts confirm that sexism has its own place in the war. The absence of female narratives in conflict and war, their role in the process of establishment of Shakti influences participation. In the same sequence, the resolution adopted by the United Nations Federation, the resolution of peace and security, becomes 1325 relevant. In which there has been advocated equal participation of women in reconstruction after peace, conflict and peace after reconciliation and peace. Sexuality is also a side of war and peace. A party which is largely overlooked. Since the role of the state during the conflict is the central issue of protective policies and strategic measures. In such a situation, the absence of women at a high level of leadership and policy formation adversely affects their rights and their viewpoint in the form of policies. The basic purpose of this article is the absence of women in the process of peace establishment in the conflict-affected areas, the importance of participation of women in peace establishment by the formation of political policy, the consent of the United Nations Federation, the resolution of the Resolution 1325 and the political policy To analyze the factors affecting women in the construction is to be analyzed.
