'Visible change of heart': Rijiju challenges Rahul to support women's quota Bill

Union minister Kiren Rijiju urged Rahul Gandhi to back the Women's Reservation Bill, highlighting the importance of women's representation in India's political landscape. This call follows Gandhi's earlier remarks on the need for women's freedom of expression for national growth. While opposition parties generally support the bill, they debate its link to delimitation. If passed, the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, 2023, will significantly alter India's political framework by reserving one-third of parliamentary and state legislative body seats for women.
