TL-TRS-WOMEN

Telangana Rashtra Samiti leader K

Kavitha Thursday raised the pitch for women's reservation,

calling for more political will to realise the objective

speedily.

"If the Women's Reservation Bill could be passed with the

same speed with which the bill on economically weaker

sections/general category reservations has been passed in both

the houses, our country would be truly progressive", she said.

"We need more political will behind reservation for

women," added Kavitha, the Nizamabad Lok Sabha member and

daughter of TRS supremo and Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar

Rao, on twitter.

The Parliament had on Wednesday passed the Constitutional

Amendment bill guaranteeing 10 per cent quota in education and

employment to economically weaker sections in the general

category.

The Upper House nod came a day after the Lok Sabha

approved it on Tuesday.
