NEW DELHI, Sep. 21, 2023 (TBINN)
Lok Sabha has passed the Women’s Reservation Bill with 454 votes.
Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam will grant 33 per cent seats to women in the Lower House of Parliament as well as state legislative assemblies. Implementation of the proposed law can, however, take several more years, a fact that was vehemently underscored by Opposition leaders.
The proposal has been passed with more than a two-thirds majority of the members present in the house, Speaker Om Birla announced after the voting.
