Can women’s quota bill pass Lok Sabha test? Updated - 10/3/2010 - ibnlive.in.com.
The Congress-led United Progressive Alliance Government is elated after the Rajya Sabha passed the Women’s Reservation Bill but the real test is still to take place in the Lok Sabha. With Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress opposing the Bill and the Rashtriya Janata Dal and the Samajwadi Party withdrawing support to the UPA Government, the future seems uncertain. The Government may still have the numbers in the Lok Sabha, but it is fast shrinking. The majority is now just wafer thin, making passage of reforms and bold policies difficult. Before the Women’s Reservation Bill was brought in Parliament the UPA enjoyed the support of 321 MPs.
