On Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a powerful appeal to Lok Sabha members, urging them to back the women's reservation bill. The bill calls for a 33% reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies. Modi stressed the importance of granting rights to half of the country's population.
The Prime Minister highlighted the decades-long political discussions surrounding the women's quota issue and encouraged members to cast their votes in favor of the bill. He emphasized that passing this amendment would further empower women and strengthen Indian democracy.
Modi's appeal was heartfelt, asking MPs to consider their female family members and follow their conscience. This call to action comes as the Lok Sabha prepares to vote not only on this significant bill but also on related legislation concerning delimitation and constituency adjustments.
