All India Women's Reservation Bill

The All India Women's Reservation Bill is proposed legislation aiming to reserve a certain percentage of seats in Parliament and state legislatures exclusively for women. Its primary goal is to promote gender equality and ensure women's political representation. The bill suggests implementing this reservation for a specific period, often 15 years, or until a nationwide census triggers a review. While it has garnered support for empowering women in governance, critics debate its potential impact on the overall political landscape. The bill reflects ongoing efforts to address gender disparities and increase women's participation in decision-making processes across India.
