Which post-100th Amendment is the most recent and aims to reserve seats for women, with certain transitional and delimitation requirements before it becomes fully operational?
106th Amendment
The 106th Constitutional Amendment Act, 2023, is known as the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam.
It provides for the reservation of one-third of the seats for women in the Lok Sabha and the State Legislative Assemblies.
Its implementation is dependent on the conduct of a Census and the subsequent delimitation exercise, so it becomes fully operational only after these transitional requirements are met.
The 105th, 104th and 103rd Amendments dealt with other matters such as backward classes, seat reservation extension, and economically weaker sections.
Hence, the most recent amendment reserving seats for women is the 106th Amendment.
