The two-day national conference of parliamentary and legislative committees on the Empowerment of Women was held in Tirupati.
This event adopted the ‘Tirupati Resolution’.
The resolution outlines a roadmap for advancing women’s empowerment, focusing on gender-responsive budgeting, strengthening women’s technical capacities at all levels, and applying a gender lens across all ministries and departments.
Despite progress, women make up only 14% of Lok Sabha members, below the global average of 26.5%.
