Using nationwide data from India spanning a 15-year period, we find that, while leader quality declines, gender quotas increase the level and quality of womenﾒs political participation, their ability to hold leaders to account, and their willingness to contribute to public goods. Key effects persist beyond the reserved period and impacts on females often materialise only with a lag. - Reproduce  aWomen in politics - India  aWomen in politics  aJournal of Development Studies
