Parliament Special Session LIVE: The Historical Shift Today, PM Modi to Carry Constitution Copy From Old To New Complex – News18

In a historic move, the Narendra Modi government has cleared the Women’s Reservation bill in the Union Cabinet meeting on Monday and is set to bring it for passage in the special session of Parliament on Wednesday. This could mean 33% reservation for women in seats in Parliament and state legislative assemblies.

The bill is set to see smooth sailing in both Houses of Parliament with nearly all opposition parties in support, including the Congress, which has in fact been pressing the Modi government to pass the legislation in the special session. This could be a major change for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections as well.
