Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The representation of women in the parliament of any country shows the status of women in that country. Since historical times, women have been excluded from decision-making. They have fought a long battle for their rights. Thus, it becomes essential to understand the proportion of women's participation in the parliaments. The percentage of women in the European Parliament is high compared to South Asian countries. Women account for 40% of all seats in Europe. In South Asia, Nepal has the highest participation, with 33 per cent, and India has 14 per cent of women participation.
The correct statement is the participation of women in parliaments in Europe is higher than in parliaments in South Asia.
