With differences persisting over the controversial Women’s Reservation Bill, Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar has convened an all-party meeting here tomorrow ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament.
Though the Constitution Amendment Bill has been passed in the Rajya Sabha sometime back, consensus eludes the measure in the Lok Sabha with some parties like SP, RJD and JD-U seeking a quota within quota for women from backward classes. In a letter to political parties, Kumar has asked them to take steps for early passage of the Bill in the Lok Sabha.
