Srinagar: A day after the Union cabinet approved the constitution amendment bill to provide reservations for women in Parliament and state assemblies, Peoples Democratic Party president Mebooba Mufti termed it a great step.

“Having navigated the rough terrain of a predominantly male political landscape myself, I am happy to see that finally the Women Reservation bill will become a reality. Despite constituting half of the population, we are grossly underrepresented. Its a great step,” she posted on X.
