Women's quota Bill first piece of legislation to be passed by new Parliament

economictimes.indiatimes.com:

women's reservation Bill or the 'Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam', guaranteeing quota for women in legislative bodies, was the first Bill to be taken up for discussion and debate by the new Parliament before its eventual passage on Thursday.

The new Parliament building was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in May this year.
Following the passage of the bill, which provides for 33 per cent reservation for women in the Lok Sabha as well as the state legislative assemblies, both Houses of Parliament were adjourned sine die.

The Parliamentarians entered the new Parliament building on Tuesday, from the old one that has been rechristened as Samvidhan Sadan.
BJP national chief JP Nadda said that there could not have been a better start for the new Parliament building.
Taking to social media platform, X, Nadda said, «There could not have been a better start for the new Parliament building! Today, as a nation, we have ushered in a new era of women empowerment. With the passage of 'Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam' by both houses of Parliament, we have moved towards providing a long-pending right to our women.

Our Nari Shakti has already proven its mettle across all walks of life, and it is now imperative that they also participate overwhelmingly in our law-making processes and contribute to our nation's growth in the Amrit Kaal. This Bill will not merely increase the representation of women in the legislature but will inspire all of our women to play a prominent and more significant role in shaping an Atmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India).
