Government Considers Special Parliament Session to Advance Women's Quota and Delimitation Bills
The Union government is considering a special Parliament session to advance constitutional amendment bills on women's reservation and delimitation, aiming to secure the required two-thirds majority after earlier setbacks. Government officials express confidence in garnering support from regional and smaller opposition parties. The proposed legislation, linking women's quota implementation to future census-based delimitation, is expected to prompt significant political debate on electoral representation and constituency boundaries. Parliamentary authorities note no official session announcement yet, with discussions ongoing about timing and procedural details.
