Blaming the Opposition after Constitutional Amendment Bill failed to pass in Lok Sabha, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said, “Today, a very strange scene was witnessed in the Lok Sabha. The Congress, TMC, DMK, and Samajwadi Party did not allow the passage of the necessary Constitution Amendment Bill for the Nari Shakti Vandan Act. Rejecting the bill that would give women 33% reservation, celebrating it, and raising victory slogans is truly reprehensible and beyond imagination.”
“Now, the women of the country will not get the 33% reservation in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies, which was their right. The Congress and its allies have not done this for the first time, but have done it repeatedly. Their mindset is neither in the interest of women nor of the country. I want to tell them that this insult to Nari Shakti will not stop here; it will go far. The opposition will have to face the ‘anger of women’ not only in the 2029 Lok Sabha elections, but at every level, every election, and every place,” the Home Minister said.
