Gupta said that the legislation is poised to open new avenues for women and elevate their role in governance in the years to come. Speaking during a visit to Tirupati, the chief minister said that the entire country is looking at the bill with hope and expectation.

Delimitation under the Nari Shakti Vandan Act means redrawing constituencies based on Census data, which will also decide women’s reserved seats. The 33% quota will be implemented only after this process, delaying reservation rollout until delimitation is completed.

The government has called a special Parliament session to introduce three major bills on delimitation, Lok Sabha expansion and women’s reservation.
