NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said Parliament is close to creating “new history” when the Women’s Reservation Act will be amended this week for its implementation in 2029.
The enactment of the law will realise the visions of the past and fulfil the resolutions of the future, he said at the ‘Nari Shakti Vandan Sammelan’ here ahead of a three-day sitting of Parliament, where the amendments to the women’s quota law are expected to be brought for consideration and passage.
“Our country’s Parliament is close to creating a new history. A new history that will realise the visions of the past; that will fulfil the resolutions of the future. A resolve for an India that is egalitarian, where social justice is not merely a slogan, but a natural part of our work culture, our decision-making process,” he said at the conference.
