LIVE | Day 2 in Parliament: Unanimously clear women reservation bill, PM tells Rajya Sabha

Having navigated the rough terrain of a predominantly male political landscape myself, I am happy to see that finally the Women Reservation bill will become a reality. Despite constituting half of the population, we are grossly underrepresented. Its a great step.
