Tamannaah reacts on the Women Reservation Bill. The recent Lok Sabha session introduced the Women Reservation Bill, a significant legislative proposal aimed at establishing a 33 percent quota for women in both the parliament and state legislative assemblies. Actress Tamannaah Bhatia, who was graciously invited to the new Parliament building on September 21, shared her thoughts on this crucial matter.
This transformative bill, referred to as the 'Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam,' has garnered considerable attention. Tamannaah Bhatia, along with Divya Dutta, had the privilege of witnessing the proceedings of the house in the new Parliament building. The talented actress expressed her optimism about the bill, noting that it has the potential to inspire ordinary citizens to participate in politics.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi also underscored the significance of this government initiative, emphasizing that it represents a crucial constitutional amendment. He reiterated the government's commitment to women-led development and noted that the 'Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam' would further empower our democracy.
As part of the bill's implementation, the Lok Sabha is expected to experience a substantial increase in the number of female members of Parliament. This number is projected to rise from the current 82 to 181, as announced by Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal when he introduced the bill. The government's primary objective with this legislation is to facilitate greater female representation in policymaking, both at the state and national levels.
