Give views on women’s quota bill re-introduction, SC tells Centre

The Supreme Court on Friday sought the Union government’s response in six weeks to a PIL, which sought re-introduction of the lapsed women’s reservation bill to provide 33% quota for women in Lok Sabha and assemblies. When the court agreed to entertain the PIL filed by an NGO, the central government’s counsel argued that there are serious problems about maintainability of the petition as it has sought a writ of mandamus to the government to undertake a particular legislation.
