Women's Reservation Bill: One step closer to gender equality in Indian politics.

The Women's Reservation Bill is a proposed amendment to the Constitution of India that would reserve one-third of all seats in the Lok Sabha (lower house of Parliament) and state legislative assemblies for women. The bill has been pending in Parliament for over two decades, but it was recently introduced again by the government.

If passed, the Women's Reservation Bill would be a major step forward for gender equality in Indian politics. Women are currently underrepresented in all levels of government, with only 14% of seats in the Lok Sabha and 11% of seats in state legislative assemblies held by women.

The Women's Reservation Bill would help to ensure that women have a greater voice in the political process and that their needs and concerns are represented in government. It would also send a strong message that India is committed to gender equality and inclusive democracy.
