Women’s quota should be implemented at current strength of Parliament: activists

Women’s rights activists and civil society members on Tuesday (April 14, 2026) said the women’s reservation Act should be implemented immediately at the current strength of the Parliament and should not be used as a “smokescreen” for delimitation.

Civil society members and transparency activists expressed concern over the “opaque and non-consultative” manner in which the government was bringing Bills on women’s reservation and delimitation in the upcoming session of Parliament.
