WOMEN'S RESERVATION BILL AND YOU

The women's reservation bill ensuring 33 % reservation to women in Parliament and state legislative bodies was finally passed in the Rajya Sabha almost 2 weeks ago. It took close to 15 years to make this happen. The bill reserves 181 of the 543 seats in the Lok Sabha and 1,370 of the 4,109 seats in the 28 state assemblies

What does the women's reservation bill being passed mean to you?

Women's Reservation Bill : Mulayam Singh Yadav

Mulayam Singh Yadav : 'If the women's reservation bill were to be passed in its existing form, it would result in flooding the parliament and state legislatures with wives of government officials and women connected with big industrial houses, thereby provoking young men to indulge in eve-teasing.'

“I don't like to say this, but they would be the women at whom youths would whistle.”
