The government is likely to table the women's reservation bill in the parliament on Tuesday, Sept. 19, 2023. As per the details of the bill, reviewed by NDTV, the Constitution (One Hundred and Twenty-eight Amendment) Act, 2023 seeks to reserve one-third of the total number of seats in Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies for women.
Of these, one-third will be reserved for women belonging to schedule caste and schedule tribes.
The law will come into effect after delimitation and redrawing of constituencies.
The original bill was introduced in the Rajya Sabha in 2008 and was subsequently passed in 2010. However, the legislation has stayed in limbo since then. The new legislation is mostly on those lines.
It states that seats will be reserved for 15 years after the commencement of the act, NDTV reported.
The new Parliament Building reflects the aspirations of 140 crore Indians. Speaking in the Lok Sabha.
