President Assents to Women's Reservation Bill for Lok Sabha and State Assemblies
Deccan ChronicleNew Delhi: President Droupadi Murmu has assented to the women’s reservation bill, which seeks to provide 33 per cent reservation to women in the Lok Sabha and state Assemblies. The quota for women in the Lok Sabha and Assemblies will continue for 15 years and Parliament can later extend the benefit period. The last such attempt was made in 2010, when the Rajya Sabha had passed a bill for women's reservation, but the same could not be passed in the Lok Sabha. Data shows that women MPs account for nearly 15 per cent of the Lok Sabha strength while their representation is below 10 per cent in many state Assemblies.
