This Act amends the Nagaland Municipal Act, 2023 to increase the reservation of seats for women in municipal bodies. Specifically, it changes the requirement from reserving one-fifth of seats to reserving one-third of seats in two sections of the original Act. The law applies to the entire state of Nagaland and comes into force immediately. This change is significant because it enhances women's participation in local governance, ensuring a stronger voice and representation for women in municipal administration.
