The Supreme Court on Friday refused to entertain petitions challenging the delimitation provision in the Nari Shakti Vandan Act, 2023, which mandates one-third reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies.

Women Reservation Act: SC Refuses To Hear Pleas

A bench comprising Justices Bela M Trivedi and P B Varale dismissed pleas filed by Jaya Thakur and the National Federation of Indian Women (NFIW), saying they could explore other legal remedies.

The bench noted that Jaya Thakur's plea became irrelevant since the bill had already been enacted into law, while the NFIW's petition focused on challenging the requirement of delimitation before implementing the law. While dismissing Thakur's petition as infructuous, the Court advised the NFIW to approach a high court or another appropriate forum.
