Madhya Pradesh Raises Women’s Reservation Quota to 35%

In a significant move towards women’s empowerment, the Madhya Pradesh government has increased the reservation quota for women in all state government services to 35%, fulfilling a key poll promise made by the BJP during the 2023 Assembly elections. This decision, made during a Cabinet meeting led by Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, raises the previous quota of 33% by 2%. The increase will be implemented immediately and will be particularly impactful for upcoming major recruitments in various departments, including public health, where 35% of the seats will be reserved for women. This move follows the BJP government’s introduction of the ‘Ladli Bhena Yojana’ last year, demonstrating a continued commitment to empowering women in the state.
