Realizing the dream of 33 percent reservation was a big success and Kavita’s efforts to achieve it were significant, the ladies said.
The London-based organization Bridge India also presented a video on Kavitha’s work on women’s reservations. Delivering the keynote address at a conference organized by Bridge India, a leading public policy organization in London, on “Women’s Reservation – Women’s Participation in the Democratic Process”, Kavitha highlighted the efforts of Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao in passing the Women’s Reservation Bill.
The BRS MLC reminded that in the first assembly meetings of the newly formed Telangana State in 2014, a resolution was made to ensure that the women’s bill would be passed by the Parliament and the same was sent to the central government.
After that, BRS party MPs raised this issue in the Parliament on many occasions and the Chief Minister also wrote to the Prime Minister.
However, the lack of quota for OBC women in women’s reservations is a cause for concern, she said, promising to continue the struggle for justice for OBC women.
