NEW DELHI (Reuters) -Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government on Tuesday moved a bill to reserve one-third of seats in the lower house of parliament and state assemblies for women, reviving an old proposal that is expected to boost his party's standing among women. The contentious legislative proposal has been hanging for decades due to opposition from some heartland political parties and needs the approval of both houses of parliament and a majority of state legislatures to become law. Its revival comes months before general elections are due by May 2024 when Modi seeks a third term.
