Explanation:

Any provision that changes the composition of the legislative bodies will require a constitutional amendment. It is a major change and hence will require a higher majority in Parliament.
A political party is a self-governing voluntary body and is not a legislative or executive body in that sense. A change in Societies Act will do for the political parties. Hence, this is another solution advocated by parties to break the deadlock in Parliament over women reservation.
