The Madhya Pradesh government issued a notification for providing 35 per cent reservation for women in recruitment, barring the forest department.
 
The government has introduced an amendment to the Madhya Pradesh Civil Services (Special Provision for Appointment of Women) Rules, 1997 to provide 35 per cent reservation for women in the state.
 
“Notwithstanding anything contained in any service rules, there shall be reserved 35 percent of all posts in the service under the state (except Forest Department) in favour of women at the stage of direct recruitment and the said reservation shall be horizontal and compartment-wise,” the notification reads.
 
Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan recently announced that 35 percent of vacancies in police and other government jobs will be filled by women.
 
Madhya Pradesh was the first state to introduce 50 per cent reservation for women in elections to panchayats and urban bodies. It also has a 30 per cent reservation for women in the police.

The state also offers concessional tariffs for registry of property in case it is in a woman’s name. In Madhya Pradesh, out of a total of 5.6 crore electors, 2.72 crore are female voters.
