    "content": "I am very happy to see we are in numbers. There are also the ones who are out there who are afraid to express themselves but they depend on women. Fifty two per cent of the voters who are most committed are women. I said that is not just about women. We will legislate on how to get the persons with disabilities, the youth and either gender depending on how it is going to happen. This Bill will be effective in 2022. It has a tenure of 20 years. We had 16 women in the last Parliament. We have 24 in this Parliament. We lost one. I am sure in 2022, we can even get to 50 women and the issue of nomination might not even happen. I beg the Members of this House to stand up to be counted as a House that passed the amendment on this gender law in this nation."
