‘For a very important bill’: Parliament to reconvene on April 16; what’s on cards

Parliament is set to reconvene on April 16 to consider legislation that could increase Lok Sabha seats from 543 to 816, with 273 seats reserved for women. This move aims to implement a one-third reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies, significantly altering the country’s political landscape and reinforcing the government’s women’s empowerment agenda.
