India - Women Reservation Bill 2010 –– The Need for India - Complete Case Study

Reality Views by sm -

What is women reservation bill?
1. The women reservation bill will reserve the 33 percent seats in Parliament and state legislatures for the females.
2. The bill is pending from the year 1996 proving that Indian politicians are not ready to accept this bill so every time we see the new drama, new demand from political parties.
3. The women reservation bill will provide Reservation for women at each level of legislative decision-making, starting with the Lok Sabha, down to state and local legislatures.


4. If the Bill is passed, one-third of the total available seats would be reserved for women in national, state, or local governments. And this number will be 181 . The Bill seeks to reserve for women 181 of the 543 seats in the Lok Sabha and 1,370 out of a total of 4,109 seats in the 28 State Assemblies.
5. The reserved seats will be rotated. So the seats will be reserved only once every 3 election.
6. Currently 33.3 percent seats in panchayat elections have been reserved for women already.
7. In the May 2004 general election, 539 candidates were elected to the 14th Lok Sabha. Only 44 of them are women.
8. Women have less than 10 percent representation in India’s parliament even though they make up 44 percent of the voting population.



History of Women Reservation bill in India –
1. 1996 — The Deve Gowda government introduces the women’s reservation bill as 81st Constitutional Amendment Bill.
2. 1998 — the bill is re-introduced in the 12th Lok Sabha as the 84th Constitutional Amendment Bill by the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government headed Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
3. 1999 — The NDA government re-introduces the bill in the 13th Lok Sabha.
4. 2002 — the bill is introduced in parliament but fails to sail through.
5. 2003 — Bill introduced twice in parliament.
6. 2004 — The United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government includes it in the Common Minimum Programme.
7. 2008 — the government tables the bill in the Rajya Sabha so that the legislation does not lapse.
8. 2010 — the cabinet clears the bill for taking it up in the Rajya Sabha. And on 8th March mother India was again made to cry by some political parties, just like Draupadi of Mahabharat. The house was adjourned for the sixth times and congress failed to punish the law breakers and kept silence like the they also wanted the bill be treated like Draupadi and enjoyed the drama when mother india was insulted.

Update 9th March 2010
The women’s reservation Bill was finally passed in the Rajya Sabha with 186 members voting for it and only one voting against it.
Trinamool Congress Members remained absent when the Bill was put to vote.
The Bahujan Samaj Party Members boycotted the voting
Now the bill will be introduced in the Lok Sabha



Who is opposing the women reservation bill?
Lalu Prasad Yadav of the Rashtriya Janata Dal
Mulayam Singh Yadav of the Samajwadi Party has been the main political forces opposed to the Bill.
These politicians say that this bill will favor only higher class females, won’t benefit Muslim females and other females.

Reality Views by sm -

The truth is that political parties and male politicians are afraid of this women reservation and today or tomorrow their Lok Sabha seat will become reserved and that time, that year they may not have the strong female candidate present in their home.
This bill will create fight in the political families as daughters will start to take part in the politics.
Then no Sanjay will dare to say sister has no right to use word Dutt.
People say that this reservation bill will increase the families rule but I want to say that today also families rule and all Priyanks who are capable are married of and stay at home, and then she may be educated or belong to rich families.
The female of poor family is beaten at night by her drunkard husband as well as a female police officer is beaten at home by her IAS husband or unemployed husband.
This is the truth of India and position of Indian females.
Regarding this it does not matter she belong to which caste ,or religion the story is same .
Every home has same kitchen and same fire and each female is burned in that
it does not matter she is educated or uneducated,she is rich or poor.

Let the bill get passed, when bill is passed it can be debated and new amendments can be made to this bill.

Most important factor is the bill should cancel caste and religion based reservation but it should introduce reservation bill with economic criteria and this will help to control the influence of rich families.

In my college days I have seen the boys and girls who came to collage in big four wheelers, luxury cars and did not pay any college fees as they belong to some lower caste and that same time I as well as many poor students used to go to college using government bus and paid full college fees .
Same will happen with Muslim females
and Sania will get the ticket and Salma will stay behind Burqa or hijab forever.

When Muslim female’s maintenance issue arises where does lalu and mulayam go ?
When Shahbano case happened why they did not opposed it ,the changing of Supreme Court judgment.

If political parties want they can give tickets to Muslim females or any females , the women reservation bill does not say that you can not give election ticket to Muslim females.

Please accept the truth and fact that you are afraid of female power, afraid to lose your election seat.
Please accept the truth that you still consider females as inferior to males or consider females as your property and a cow which will produce the bull for family.

Learn to accept and give the equality to females.

The people who are opposing the bill are just trying to divide the females ,once females are divided they will be never able to do any justice to females of Indian society.

Ever heard male is burning male ,
but we always hear female burns female, so no intelligent female will support them regarding the division of females on the name of religion


There is old saying
Educate one man only one man is educated
When female is educated whole family of 4 or 100 is educated.
When one female is empowered
Whole family is empowered

Everyone says God save India but I do not know God will save India or not
But again I say only females of India can save the India.

Support Women Reservation Bill
Demand economic criteria for this reservation
Boycott Political parties and persons who are against this bill

I agree. Economic criteria does not matter when it comes to women. I only hope we eventually see educated, enlightened women coming to power.

I think Indians are basically against reservations.

The German Model of Women's Reservation by political parties is democratic.
In Germany, political parties field 30% women candidates in elections.
If Germany can do it, why can not India?


This sounds great to me. The idea being more women being able to join politics.

BK Chowla, March 09, 2010  

The bill in it's present form is anti-democratic.How can the choice get restricted for the voter???

Shabnam Sultan March 09, 2010  

I think most of the the Indians are against this reservation. Politicians are busy too busy thinking about their vote banks.

Neha March 09, 2010

Bikram March 09, 2010  

Well what is reservation going to bring.. Look at what all the reservations has done to the country.. It seems every field will have some ..

Against reservation.. What can be done is Give equal oppurtunities.. Make sure proper education is given , providing of all that needs to be.. and then if they are worthy they will get what they aim for ...

Good post. I am all for the Women's Reservation bill.

sandy March 14, 2010  

I personally feel that this bill should just become a gateway for the woman to enter politics and they should not look for women vote bank. And by 2020 or 2025 hopefully we have efficient women politicians and this bill in removed.

I DONT AGREE. THIS KILL BILL IS GOING TO DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD. ALREADY THERE IS A LOT OF RESERVATIONS FOR INDIAN WOMEN. MANY MEN WILL BE DEPRIVED OF CHANCES TO GET SEATS IN THE PARLIAMENT.I SUGGEST THAT THIS BILL SHOULD BE IGNORED.

i m not agree to reservation bill because it categorize human being as well as indians that why we should choose reservation on the basis on quality skill and talent.

finally every indian being has to right to go to assembly on the basis of there quality and we are live democratic country.

Pramod,
yes thanks, please read the other articles regarding women reservation which i have written you may change your view.
Yes merit is good idea, but do you think currently any type of good merit is required in this so called Indian Democracy.

vinay georgian April 06, 2010  

"Yes merit is good idea, but do you think currently any type of good merit is required in this so called Indian Democracy."

i completely disagree over this point .
i think politics is the most challenging job in current scenario..
if you don't know how to influence people with your words then how can you expect to be a politician.
suppose today this bill is passed and 33% women get elected and if they don't know to lead them then what is the use of leadership.

i personally feel that woman should be empowered through "proper education in our society".
they should be provided financial help at each level and not reservation at each level.


our politician whoever is supporting the bill,
their motto is not "women empowerment but vote bank " and at the same time they are scared to lose their own seat .
this is a complete selfish act.

sm,  April 06, 2010  

Vote bank will be created,
but still support female reservation 50%
Today we have caste based vote bank, one more vote bank will be created Female vote bank.
Just see the benefits of this reservation ,and you will understand the importance.
with education political empowerment will take more than 200 years.
or more years.
This is fast ,easy, and guaranteed start of female empowerment.

vinay georgian April 06, 2010  

i agree with you and i am not against feminism...but this is not the way to uplift woman .
by providing reservation we are improving the status of few woman mostly those women whose status is already sound .
how can we assure that all women will get benefit?

we must support women's reservation bill as it will not only encourage women to be the part of goverment and took interest in politics but also it wiil support empowerment of women and it will serve as powerfull equipment for the women to get thier position back in the society.

by rahul tiwari

thanks

Unknown May 06, 2010  

those who oppose by saying that there should be reservation for the backward class are afraid of the women's empowerment.really they belongs from man dominated and criminal mind family and hence they wish to crush the women so that they can enjoy by creating presuure on women.

I want to ask all the readers of the post that do they think this bill is an extension for the implementation of CEDAW by the UN??

Yes we can say that its extension of CEDAW
In India majority laws are passed because of International pressure or some treaty.

welll this is a very informative article.......well written...i think...just giving reservation do not solve all the problems women are facing today......the most important is women"s security,,,they are not safe enough even in big cities...parents do-not allow their girls to go out side,,,because they think they are not safe.
these issues should be taken in to consideration more. i think in present scenario gap between rich and poor are more than, man and women....and yes if the prime motive of this bill is empowering women than why govt is referring housewife s as no productive for the economy..one side they are trying to empower women by this bill and on the next side they are discouraging house wife......plz tell me which type of empowerment it is???????

Gap between poor and rich is economic problem.
Female security is police and judiciary problem
and dirty mind of people.
This female reservation will help housewives also.
You said it rightly
this is reason i always say we need to reform every Indian law.

one of the indicators to identify the countries devolpment and it is civilized or not it is status given to its womens , if the womens were given equal status and opportunities as men in all the walks of life,
true it may need the detiled case study ,it has already all the case studies are over from lost all the ages, this is the country which has practiced the sati system child marriages female infanticide non acceptance of widow remarriage dowery systems for a long time, it would take a nothing less than a revolution to put an end to all these practices, all these are faced through case study only the status of women in the ancient india , british period modren india and in vedic ages she passed all the discriminations only to her part no longer reason to need to move the bill in the parliament for its approval, who and why the bill will not pass it has already granted by indian constitution for all the citizens without discrimination
