President Murmu gives approval, Women's Reservation Bill officially become law.

Today, days after a historic vote President Droupadi Murmu has given her consent to the Women's Reservation Bill, has become a law.

The recently passed law mandates a 33 percent reservation for women in both the Lok Sabha (the lower house of India's Parliament) and state legislative assemblies.

Earlier, Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar signed the women's reservation bill before it was presented to President Murmu for her assent. The Constitution amendment bill received overwhelming support in the Lok Sabha and unanimous approval in the Rajya Sabha during a special parliamentary session earlier this month.

PM Modi has said that without appropriate participation of women in politics, one cannot talk about inclusive society and democratic integration.

Prime Minister Modi, speaking at a BJP event in Delhi on September 26 during the unveiling of a statue commemorating the party's ideologue Deendayal Upadhyaya on his birth anniversary, remarked that the successful passage of the women's reservation bill in Parliament is not just a victory for democracy but also aligns with the ideology of the party.
