increase women's participation in the political arena. He expressed his
gratitude to the Lok Sabha members via social media platform X (formerly known

significant step towards gender parity in India's political landscape, creating
an environment where women can play an even more prominent role in shaping the
nation's future. The bill's passage signifies a commitment to promoting
inclusivity and diversity in the Indian democratic process.
