Women Reservation Bill 2010 - A view regarding Comments on women reservation bill
Reality Views by sm –
After reading all the comments on my post
http://realityviews.blogspot.com/2010/03/india-women-reservation-bill-2010-need.html
I thought it is better to make it one short article rather than answering each comment.
Following are the comments and views regarding the women reservation bill.
• Undemocratic.
• In Germany, political parties field 30% women candidates in elections.
If Germany can do it, why can not India?
• I think Indians are basically against reservations.
• How can the choice get restricted for the voter???
• Politicians are busy too busy thinking about their vote banks.
• .one should achieve something on the basis of merit and not reservation; period.
• What can be done is give equal opportunities. Make sure proper education is given, providing of all that needs to be. And then if they are worthy they will get what they aim for.
Reality Views by sm - an attempt to understand the comments
“Sometimes I wonder if we shall ever grow up in our politics and say definite things which mean something, or whether we shall always go on using generalities to which everyone can subscribe, and which mean very little.”
In current Indian political system all the above thoughts are ideal and great, just like a fairy tale, a dream story.
But one has to stay with the reality of India, and reality of Indian politics and political parties .
The reality of India is that
Even Educated males in India are afraid to contest elections,
Educated by books and uneducated in thoughts and actions do not go to vote
For them voting is waste of time.
Today on what merit the candidates are elected, there is no merit required to contest elections.
Only merit required is capacity to win the elections by paying money and showing fear.
In India we do not have democracy as such if there was democracy then why Hussain can not feel safe in India.
Why Taslima do not feel safe
Why Government of England issue a notice to British females that if visiting India use the local Indian dress, basically in Goa.
Why Majority Indians fear to visit police station or fear to file complaints?
A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.
In current situation if political parties start reservation in India, then only we will find that all brother and sisters are standing in elections. So reservation in political parties is useless as today political parties have become a business house just like any other multinational
We already know that every politician has made his son or daughter a MP in last elections. Every political party is run like a privately owned business; the son of ceo become ceo, the son of political party workers remains a party worker.
Pawar, Gandhi, Patil so many
If as per Germany our political parties start reservation just think who will get the election tickets?
A combination of husband and wife, then brother and sister and then grand mother and daughter.
Even Pakistan has more females as Member of Parliament than India.
We can not compare Germany with India as the ground reality of India and Germany is different.
In European nations leaders are studied and educated and in India our leaders are uneducated, corrupt or criminals or belong to born rich families.
Today in India people say this bill will take away my right to choose candidate, this will limit my choice
And on the other hand people say that we do not have good choice so we do not go to vote as all the candidates are criminals or uneducated .
A total confused mind
People say that this will not give chance for candidate to develop his area; I want to say where development is?
Why still I have to stay in darkness daily more than 12 hours?
Why in last sixty years I do not have clean water?
24 hours electricity?
And today also in India we have villages that do not have electricity.
Why today also villagers put the sign board village is for sale outside the village.
The women reservation bill is required because in last sixty years we have seen that political parties in India are not willing to give tickets to the females.
Political and social progress of India is very slow.
We Indians waste more time on debate rather than experimenting with it.
It is better that this bill is passed and now we can test this bill and something positive will come from that.
Do not expect sweet things from corrupt political parties.
Do you know regarding black money 40 committees have been formed so far in India and government of India has not accepted a single idea given by these committees to get rid of black money in India.
Even political parties are not ready to implement police reforms.
So it is better that through this bill Indian female will get the chance to stand for elections.
So something is better than nothing
It is better to move forward than thinking on ideals. And dreaming that one day magic will happen and everything will happen great way.
It is better to experiment with something rather than waiting for thousand years.
“All this will not be finished in the first hundred days. Nor will it be finished in the first thousand days, nor in the life of this administration, nor even perhaps in our lifetime on this planet. But let us begin.”
As Women Reservation bill is already passed by Rajya Sabha.
Lets hope this will be passed in Lok Sabha
and we can experiment this in the coming elections of 2014.

What is women reservation bill?
1. The women reservation bill will reserve the 33 percent seats in Parliament and state legislatures for the females.
2. The bill is pending from the year 1996 proving that Indian politicians are not ready to accept this bill so every time we see the new drama, new demand from political parties.
3. The women reservation bill will provide Reservation for women at each level of legislative decision-making, starting with the Lok Sabha, down to state and local legislatures.
4. If the Bill is passed, one-third of the total available seats would be reserved for women in national, state, or local governments. And this number will be 181 . The Bill seeks to reserve for women 181 of the 543 seats in the Lok Sabha and 1,370 out of a total of 4,109 seats in the 28 State Assemblies.
5. The reserved seats will be rotated. So the seats will be reserved only once every 3 election.
6. Currently 33.3 percent seats in panchayat elections have been reserved for women already.
7. In the May 2004 general election, 539 candidates were elected to the 14th Lok Sabha. Only 44 of them are women.
8. Women have less than 10 percent representation in India’s parliament even though they make up 44 percent of the voting population.
History of Women Reservation bill in India –
1. 1996 — The Deve Gowda government introduces the women’s reservation bill as 81st Constitutional Amendment Bill.
2. 1998 — the bill is re-introduced in the 12th Lok Sabha as the 84th Constitutional Amendment Bill by the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government headed Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
3. 1999 — The NDA government re-introduces the bill in the 13th Lok Sabha.
4. 2002 — the bill is introduced in parliament but fails to sail through.
5. 2003 — Bill introduced twice in parliament.
6. 2004 — The United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government includes it in the Common Minimum Programme.
7. 2008 — the government tables the bill in the Rajya Sabha so that the legislation does not lapse.
8. 2010 — the cabinet clears the bill for taking it up in the Rajya Sabha. And on 8th March mother India was again made to cry by some political parties, just like Draupadi of Mahabharat. The house was adjourned for the sixth times and congress failed to punish the law breakers and kept silence like the they also wanted the bill be treated like Draupadi and enjoyed the drama when mother india was insulted.
Update 9th March 2010
The women’s reservation Bill was finally passed in the Rajya Sabha with 186 members voting for it and only one voting against it.
Trinamool Congress Members remained absent when the Bill was put to vote.
The Bahujan Samaj Party Members boycotted the voting
Now the bill will be introduced in the Lok Sabha
Who is opposing the women reservation bill?
Lalu Prasad Yadav of the Rashtriya Janata Dal
Mulayam Singh Yadav of the Samajwadi Party has been the main political forces opposed to the Bill.
These politicians say that this bill will favor only higher class females, won’t benefit Muslim females and other females.
Reality Views by sm -
The truth is that political parties and male politicians are afraid of this women reservation and today or tomorrow their Lok Sabha seat will become reserved and that time, that year they may not have the strong female candidate present in their home.
This bill will create fight in the political families as daughters will start to take part in the politics.
Then no Sanjay will dare to say sister has no right to use word Dutt.
People say that this reservation bill will increase the families rule but I want to say that today also families rule and all Priyanks who are capable are married of and stay at home, and then she may be educated or belong to rich families.
The female of poor family is beaten at night by her drunkard husband as well as a female police officer is beaten at home by her IAS husband or unemployed husband.
This is the truth of India and position of Indian females.
Regarding this it does not matter she belong to which caste ,or religion the story is same .
Every home has same kitchen and same fire and each female is burned in that
it does not matter she is educated or uneducated,she is rich or poor.
Let the bill get passed, when bill is passed it can be debated and new amendments can be made to this bill.
Most important factor is the bill should cancel caste and religion based reservation but it should introduce reservation bill with economic criteria and this will help to control the influence of rich families.
In my college days I have seen the boys and girls who came to collage in big four wheelers, luxury cars and did not pay any college fees as they belong to some lower caste and that same time I as well as many poor students used to go to college using government bus and paid full college fees .
Same will happen with Muslim females
and Sania will get the ticket and Salma will stay behind Burqa or hijab forever.
When Muslim female’s maintenance issue arises where does lalu and mulayam go ?
When Shahbano case happened why they did not opposed it ,the changing of Supreme Court judgment.
If political parties want they can give tickets to Muslim females or any females , the women reservation bill does not say that you can not give election ticket to Muslim females.
Please accept the truth and fact that you are afraid of female power, afraid to lose your election seat.
Please accept the truth that you still consider females as inferior to males or consider females as your property and a cow which will produce the bull for family.
Learn to accept and give the equality to females.
The people who are opposing the bill are just trying to divide the females ,once females are divided they will be never able to do any justice to females of Indian society.
Ever heard male is burning male ,
but we always hear female burns female, so no intelligent female will support them regarding the division of females on the name of religion
There is old saying
Educate one man only one man is educated
When female is educated whole family of 4 or 100 is educated.
When one female is empowered
Whole family is empowered
Everyone says God save India but I do not know God will save India or not
But again I say only females of India can save the India.
Support Women Reservation Bill
Demand economic criteria for this reservation
Boycott Political parties and persons who are against this bill

It's a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation's strong
Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better baby
Just passing through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice at all
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act
We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better baby
Just passing through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living

Does BCCI is Charitable Organization or Commercial Organization?
Does BCCI is Charitable Organization or Commercial Organization?
Reality Views by sm -
BCCI is a registered charitable institution.
How can some one give permission to the BCCI as charitable institution?
Cricket is not our national game.
Hockey is our national game
Establishing cricket coaching, playing commercial matches making profits of millions and billion of rupees, arranging 20/20 matches, staying in five star hotels and live life like a king, how can it become a charitable public work.
Where do we find the charitable purpose of BCCI?
One will ask what the problem is if BCCI is registered as a charitable Organization.
BCCI, is registered under Section 12 (A) of the Income Tax Act as a trust, was availing of an income-tax exemption under Section 11 by claiming to be a charitable organization. It had said the promotion of cricket is a public utility.
As per the changes made in the Finance Act, 2008-09, a “charitable purpose” includes relief for poor, education, medical relief, and the advancement of any other object of general public utility.
As a charitable organization the organization pays very less taxes as good as no taxes.
By claiming and getting the status of Charitable Organization BCCI has saved more than Rs 100 Crore of taxes.
How does promotion of Game becomes public utility, furthermore this game is not our national game.
What BCCI has done for the cricket, how many school grounds they have created?
What Social good BCCI has done for India?
What Indian Cricket Team or BCCI head has done for the farmers who are committing suicide?
Which type of Social Service BCCI has done for India, Indian Poor People, and Education?
If BCCI is a charitable organization then every hospital, every insurance company, every medical professional should get 100% tax relief, because no one does the social duty like them.
A charitable trust is one which is established for the benefit of the public as a whole or is devoted to an activity for public good.
Truth is that BCCI is just a commericial company like Tata, Reliance and Wipro.
And they should pay the taxes.
India needs to change the law of charitable trust and organizations,
Current laws are very confusing and any intelligent lawyer will prove in the court that BCCI is charitable organization.
Like the BCCI don’t know how many Organizations, companies are not paying taxes to India and evading taxes of millions of rupees.
