Women's Reservation Act passed in September 2023 (128th Constitutional Amendment) provides 33% quota for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies
GK and monthly revision
Rahul, Rijiju spar over linking delimitation to women’s quota law
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Union Law Minister Kiren Rijiju clashed over the implementation of the Women's Reservation Act, 2023. Gandhi demanded immediate implementation of the law without linking it to the delimitation exercise, questioning the three-year delay. The legislation provides 33% reservation for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies but its implementation is tied to the next census and delimitation process, likely pushing it to 2029.
