New Delhi : Rajya Sabha Chairman M. Venkaiah Naidu on Friday appointed Kahkashan Parveen, a JD-U member from Bihar, to the panel of Vice Chairman. 

 The appointment comes after various members of the House urged the Chairman to appoint a female member in the panel on the occasion of International Women's



Day.

On Thursday, the Congress' Viplove Thakur had pointed out that there were no women in the Vice-Chairman's panel. 

Parveen was chairperson of the Women's Commission in Bihar and had unsuccessfully contested the Assembly election in 2010 from Kahalgaon in Bhagalpur district and had also served as Mayor of Bhagalpur.
