In a bold statement, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra criticized the government for allegedly using the Women's Reservation Bill to alter electoral boundaries, a move she described as a strategy to maintain power. Her remarks follow the defeat of the bill in the Lok Sabha, marking a pivotal moment for opposition unity and democratic resilience.

During a press conference, Gandhi underscored that the opposition backs women's reservation but opposes any hidden agenda. She accused the ruling BJP of intending to manipulate the bill for the 2029 elections, claiming the proposal was less about women's rights and more about controlling delimitation.

Gandhi further asserted that public awareness of the government's purported intentions was evident. She highlighted that the defeat was a significant setback for the Modi government and showcased the potential of a united opposition to challenge the ruling party's narratives successfully.
