Answer 1

The correct option is A 50%

The Karnataka government has been the first state to declare 50% reservations for women in local bodies. Through the policy of 33% reservation in government appointments, women have been able to get justice to some extent. The government has appointed a commission for the welfare and development of girls and women. This commission is trying to get justice for women against exploitation by taking up their cause.
