Government Plans Special Parliament Session to Pass Delimitation and Women's Reservation Bills
The Indian government is considering a special Parliament session to pass a Constitutional Amendment Bill linked to delimitation and implementing 33% women's reservation in Parliament and state assemblies. The bill proposes increasing Lok Sabha seats from 543 to up to 850. The government expresses confidence of securing the required two-thirds majority, citing a potential 15-18 vote margin. Opposition parties, including Congress and regional groups, have raised concerns about the delimitation process and demand wider consultations. The Monsoon Session remains unprorogued, allowing for a short-notice convening of Parliament.
