The women members have also demanded that the parties and the government adopt special measures to increase the number of the women.
"I draw the attention of the government and political parties to increase the number of women in the house," said another lawmaker, Kunti Shahi from Rastriya Prajatantra Party-Nepal.
In the earlier Constituent Assembly, there were 197 female lawmakers, while in the second Constituent Assembly there are 162 female lawmakers which has worried the women lawmakers and rights activists.
The reinstated parliament in 2007 had passed a resolution on women's rights, ensuring 33 percent female representation in every state organ.
