Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee accused the BJP-led NDA government of leveraging the women's quota amendment as a cover for the Delimitation Bill, asserting it could fracture the nation. She pledged sustained opposition at a party rally, condemning the bills as an affront to democracy.

Banerjee criticized the BJP for attempting to increase the Lok Sabha seats to 850, warning it could destabilize the country. Despite her party's 37% female representation, she challenged the BJP to follow suit and win the upcoming state assembly election with a strong female presence.
