Answer : 3. "33% reserve seats for women "
Explanation :

The Government of India introduced the Constitution (128th Constitutional Amendment) Bill, 2023, which proposes to reserve 33% seats for women in the Lok Sabha (lower house of the Parliament of India) and state legislatures. This reservation will also apply to seats reserved for Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST). These amendments were the result of recommendations made by the Balwantrai Mehta Committee in 1957 and the Ashok Mehta Committee in 1977, with the aim of strengthening local self-governance and empowering local bodies in rural and urban India.
