The BJP’s Historic Women’s Reservation Bill Is Also A Promise To About 179 Male MPs To Keep Their Seats Safe For Now

None of the four previous versions of the government’s landmark women’s reservation bill stipulated the requirement of delimitation. There appears no justification to have a different rule for Indian women, except to secure the immediate future of about 179 male MPs, who risk losing their seats if the law were immediately implemented with no caveats.

The BJP’s Historic Women’s Reservation Bill Is Also A Promise To About 179 Male MPs To Keep Their Seats Safe For Now

None of the four previous versions of the government’s landmark women’s reservation bill stipulated the requirement of delimitation.

Reservations for Jats, Marathas and economically weaker sections in 2016, 2018 and 2019 were passed without a fresh recount of beneficiaries. There appears, then, no justification, to have a different rule for Indian women, except to secure the immediate future of about 179 male MPs, who risk losing their seats if the law were immediately implemented with no caveats.
