In a heated debate in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi voiced strong opposition to the proposed Women's Reservation Bill, declaring it as an attempt by the government to manipulate India's electoral landscape.
Gandhi accused the administration of masking a real agenda to diminish representation from southern and northeastern states, thereby securing political leverage for the BJP. He argued that the bill, touted as empowering women, is more about retaining power by sidelining OBCs.
Echoing concerns about the erosion of state representation, Gandhi called the bill an 'anti-national act', vowing that the opposition would fight against changes to the country's electoral map. He criticized the government for allegedly bypassing issues like the caste census to further its ambitions.
