Union Cabinet Approves Women's Reservation Bill

The Union Cabinet granted approval for the presentation of the women's reservation bill.

While the full specifics of the bill remain undisclosed to the public, there is widespread speculation that it aims to secure a 33 per cent reservation for women in the Lok Sabha.

It's important to mention that the special session, which was announced last month by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Prahlad Joshi without revealing the agenda, recently had its agenda disclosed. This preliminary legislative schedule includes eight bills, with the women's reservation bill notably absent from the list.
