This data set uses political reservations for women in India to study the impact of women's leadership on policy decisions. Using a dataset we collected on 265 village councils in West Bengal and Rajasthan, we compare the type of public goods provided in reserved and unreserved village's councils. Data sets based upon information provided by GP Pradhans, local villagers, and the 1991 Indian Census
