In the Parliament of Iran
In the total 11 terms of the Parliament of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Islamic Consultative Assembly), 78 women have won 111 seats in various terms. Some of these women were subsequently disqualified by the Guardian Council, some failed to win the necessary votes to re-enter parliament, some were imprisoned or left Iran, and others are still seeking re-election to the parliament.[1] There are 16 women from 13 constituencies in the current term of the parliament of Iran.[2]
The female members of the Parliament of Iran (Islamic Consultative Assembly) were all from the Muslim constituencies of the country, and no female representative from a religious minority was present in the parliament in any of the terms. More than 13 female representatives have been close relatives of influential political figures in Iranian political power.[1] Soheila Jolodarzadeh and Mariam Behruzi from Tehran constituency and Nayyereh Akhavan Bitaraf[3] from Isfahan constituency each have the highest record of attending the parliament for 4 terms. Fatemeh Rahbar was also elected in a total of four terms, but her death prevented her from running in the fourth term.[4]
