CPI's Annie Raja Calls for Kerala Assembly Resolution on Women's Reservation Law
Senior CPI leader Annie Raja has urged Kerala Chief Minister V D Satheesan and the state Assembly to pass a resolution for immediate implementation of the 2023 Women's Reservation Act, which mandates 33% reservation for women in legislatures. Raja highlighted that the National Federation of Indian Women submitted a memorandum seeking removal of census and delimitation conditions delaying the law's enactment. She expressed disappointment over the UDF government's inaction after 100 days in office and cited Tamil Nadu's Assembly resolution as a precedent. Raja also addressed internal CPI and CPI(M) discussions regarding opposition leadership roles in Kerala's Assembly.
