New Delhi: The government has stated that a "appropriate decision will be taken at an appropriate time," but several political parties, including the ruling NDA and the opposition I.N.D.I.A. bloc, made a strong pitch on Sunday for the passage of the women's reservation bill during the five-day Parliament session beginning on Monday.
On the eve of the session, on the auspicious festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, the administration formally informed legislators about the shift to the new Parliament building at an all-party meeting.
