Bill lying in cold storage

The Congress-led UPA government had brought the Women’s Reservation Bill, but then it could not be passed by Parliament due to strong opposition from JDU’s Sharad Yadav, SP’s Mulayam Singh Yadav and RJD’s Lalu Yadav. In the bill, a provision was made to reserve 33 per cent seats for women in the parliament and state assemblies. Since then there is discussion every now and then, but the bill is lying in cold storage. The question is, is this genie going to come out again before the 2024 elections?
