PM Modi Renews Push for Women's Reservation, Opposition Hits Back

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made a fresh appeal to the opposition regarding women's political reservation, reigniting debate on the issue. The move has drawn a sharp response from the Congress party, which called the pitch dishonest. Congress pointed out that the Women's Reservation Bill was already passed in September 2023, questioning the intent behind Modi's renewed push. The party suggested the government was attempting to take fresh credit for legislation already enacted. The exchange has sparked a broader political debate over the implementation and sincerity of the reservation policy.
