Government Considers Reintroducing Delimitation and Women's Reservation Bills Amid Opposition Consultations
The Indian government is considering reintroducing the Delimitation and Women's Reservation Amendment Bills, aiming to secure a two-thirds majority to pass these constitutional amendments. The bills seek to increase Lok Sabha seats and reserve 33% for women by 2029. While the government has engaged opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, no commitment has been received. Despite speculation about a special parliamentary session post-August 13, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju has denied plans for such a session, with efforts continuing during the ongoing Monsoon Session.
