'Shouldn't be considered failure of govt ...' Rijiju on women's reservation bill not clearing LS The government faced a setback as the women's reservation bill failed to pass in the Lok Sabha, requiring a two-thirds majority. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju blamed the Congress and opposition parties, calling it an anti-women stance and a significant blow to the nation. The opposition, while supporting reservation, opposed its linkage with delimitation and census. #Lok_Sabha #Union_Minister #govt #Kiren_Rijiju #Minister_Kiren #Rijiju #women_reservation #reservation_bill #reservation #considered_failure

Women’s Quota Act of 2023 comes into force Women's reservation in elections will now be implemented from April 16, 2026, following a notification by the law ministry. This move aims to expedite women's participation in politics. The government is pushing for amendments to the Constitution to allow delimitation based on the 2011 census, potentially enabling women's reservation in the 2029 general election. #Women #Act #April #Quota_Act #law_ministry #Women_reservation #force_Women #Quota #ministry #reservation
