Abstract
India is a patriarchal society. Throughout history, religion, social norms, legal systems and cultural traditions have both aided and abetted patriarchy in various ways. However, since the ancient times, women have played a vital role in every field. Women were active participants in public and administrative fields in historical India. There are many examples of well-governed Hindu kingdoms led by female regents. Queens had a lot of clout in the government. The paper will aim to study, discuss and appreciate some of these powerful women of the early Mughal period. We will elucidate about the most influential women in the period from Babur to Akbar.
