About the Talk:

Madhu Kishwar believes there has been no dialogue with those who've had reservations about the bill.
"Enhanced participation of women in politics must be seen as part of a far-reaching package of electoral reforms," she says. Party high commands tend to auction tickets or distribute them as patronage to chosen sycophants; grassroots workers have no choice in who's to represent them. "In this scenario, it's inevitable the women's quota will be cornered by the biwi-beti brigade." The lottery system of reserved seats will uproot both men and women from their constituencies which they may have worked hard to build. It will ghettoise women's politics as women will forever be pitted against each other.

Madhu Kishwar exploring the pros and cons of the recently passed Women's Reservation Bill 2023 (128th Constitutional Amendment Bill) or Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam) recently passed in the Lok Sabha (LS) and the Rajya Sabha (RS).
