{'many indian women': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'indians': [8, 3, 13, 29], 'women judges': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'foreigners': [1, 0, 2, 4], 'meeting': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'judges': [2, 0, 1, 2], 'persons': [4, 4, 9, 10], 'men': [4, 3, 12, 9]}

Let`s break down the given information to solve the problem:

Total number of participants in the meeting: 300

Number of foreigners: 120

Number of Indians: Total participants - Foreigners = 300 - 120 = 180

Now, let`s analyze the Indian participants:

Number of Indian men who are not judges: 110

Number of Indian men or judges: 160

Number of Indian women judges: 35

To find the number of Indian women who attended the meeting, we need to subtract the number of Indian men (including judges) from the total number of Indian participants:

Total Indian men = Number of Indian men or judges - Number of Indian women judges

= 160 - 35

= 125

Now, subtract the number of Indian men (including judges) from the total number of Indians:

Number of Indian women = Total Indians - Total Indian men

= 180 - 125

= 55

Therefore, the number of Indian women who attended the meeting is 55.
