    New Delhi (India), September 22: In the annals of Indian politics, few individuals can match the unwavering commitment and tireless efforts of Smt. Neera Shastri ji, the erstwhile President of the Women’s Wing, has dedicated her life to championing the cause of women’s empowerment and political representation. Her remarkable journey alongside Geeta Mukerji, a key figure in the committee drafting the groundbreaking Women Reservation Bill, is a testament to the strength of their conviction. 

    For far too long, women in India found themselves on the sidelines of critical decision-making processes. Political parties often reserved seats for women in constituencies considered less significant, inadvertently sidelining competent women from key positions. Smt. Neera Shastri recognized the urgent need for change and understood that women’s voices must be heard at the highest levels of governance.

    The Women’s Reservation Bill, a watershed moment in India’s political landscape, emerged as the catalyst for transformation. Smt. Neera Shastri and Geeta Mukerji recognized that the bill held the potential to not only empower women but also contribute to the reduction of crimes against them. They understood that women’s participation at the helm of the nation’s affairs was vital for achieving a balanced and speedy development trajectory.

    Years of tireless advocacy, countless core group meetings, and numerous demonstrations became the norm for Smt. Neera Shastri and her team. Their relentless pursuit of 33% reservation for women in legislative bodies took them to the forefront of India’s political activism. Their cause was close to their hearts, and they were willing to make personal sacrifices for the greater good.

    Arrests became a recurring theme as they faced opposition from various quarters, but Smt. Neera Shastri ji remained undeterred. Her unwavering resolve led to frequent summons by the courts for her active participation in demonstrations. She knew that this struggle was a crucial step toward achieving gender equality in Indian politics.

    Neera Ji’s contributions extended beyond protests and demonstrations. She also organized workshops to educate women about the Women Reservation Bill, helping them understand its implications and the power it could bestow upon them. Her efforts aimed to inspire women from all walks of life to actively engage in the political process.

    In the spirit of unity and collaboration, Mrs. Shastri played a pivotal role in bringing together women from diverse backgrounds, including Muslim women, to Delhi. Their collective demand for the 33% reservation found support from eminent leaders like Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Raja Mata Vijayaraje Scindia. This was a turning point in their journey, demonstrating that their cause had widespread recognition and support.

    As we look back at Smt. In Neera Shastri’s journey, we see a trailblazer who has tirelessly fought for a more inclusive and equitable political landscape in India. Her dedication to the Women’s Reservation Bill has paved the way for women to have a more significant say in the development of the nation. It is a legacy that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on generations to come, ensuring that women’s voices continue to shape India’s future.

    In an era where gender equality and representation are at the forefront of global discussions, Smt. Neera Shastri’s story serves as an inspiring example of what can be achieved through unwavering determination and a steadfast commitment to change. She reminds us all that the path to progress is often paved with courage, resilience, and an unshakable belief in a brighter future.

    21st September 2023 marks a historic day for women of  Bharat under the leadership of honourable PM Sri Narendra Modi for passing the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam Bill. With joyous tears and euphoric gratitude, Smt Neera Shastri’s perseverance and commitment to the cause came to fruition with being the only Bill in the history of the Indian government to have been passed with full consensus.
