ABP CVoter Survey: Both the Opposition and the ruling NDA backed the Women's Reservation Bill which was passed during the five-day Special Parliament Session, according to a survey conducted by ABP C-Voter. The 'Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam' guarantees a 33 per cent quota for women in Lok Sabha and state assemblies including the National Capital Territory of Delhi.


ABP Cvoter reached out to the opposition and NDA supporters and conducted a survey to find out which party/alliance would get the most electoral benefit from the passing of the Women's Reservation Bill.

Around 9.5% of respondents, including 8.1% of Opposition supporters and 11.6% of NDA supporters, remained undecided or chose not to express a viewpoint.
