The seats were proposed to be reserved in rotation and would have been determined by draw of lots in such a way that a seat would be reserved only once in three consecutive general elections. The Rajya Sabha passed the bill on 9 March 2010.[1] However, the Lok Sabha never voted on the bill.[2][3] The bill lapsed after the dissolution of the 15th Lok Sabha in 2014.[4] Women's reservationsIn 1993, a constitutional amendment was passed in India that called for a random one third of village council leader, or pradhan, positions in gram panchayat to be reserved for women.[5] There is a long-term plan to extend this reservation to parliament and legislative assemblies.[6][7][8] Its opponents consider this preferential treatment of women in India as discrimination against them in admissions to schools, colleges, and universities.
