New Delhi: Consensus again eluded the Women's reservation bill at an all-party meeting convened on June 16 by Speaker Manohar Joshi. "I will try for a consensus before the monsoon session of Parliament", Lok Sabha Speaker Manohar Joshi told reporters after a three-hour meeting of political parties. The speaker is likely to hold consultations with Prime Minister, Atal Behari Vajpayee, leader of the Opposition Sonia Gandhi and leaders of some other political parties to arrive at unanimity on the issue. The Bill in its current form, seeks to provide 33 per cent reservation for women in Lok Sabha and state Assemblies while the Election Commission proposal, a diluted form, makes it mandatory on parties to put up 33 per cent of women candidates in elections and calls for an amendment to the Representation of People's Act instead of a Constitution amendment. Among the suggestions that came up for discussion at the meeting were the Election Commission’s proposal, reduce the percentage from the proposed 33 and double-member constituency. PTI
