Congress Accuses Government of Political Maneuvering with 'Special Session'

The Congress alleges the government is leveraging a special parliamentary session to pass bills on women's quota law and delimitation for political gain in West Bengal and Tamil Nadu. Concerns about rushed delimitation's adverse effects on certain states were raised, calling for careful consideration and all-party discussions.

The Congress party has raised serious allegations against the government, accusing it of using a 'special session' of Parliament as a tactic to gain political mileage in upcoming state elections, particularly in West Bengal and Tamil Nadu.

Party leaders expressed concerns over potential adverse impacts of a hasty delimitation process on states like Tamil Nadu and Kerala. They emphasize that constitutional amendments regarding parliamentary and assembly constituencies require thorough, careful discussions and caution the government against rushing the process.

Accusations extend to the government's handling of the women's quota law, with Congress asserting that the timing of these legislative efforts is politically motivated. Calls for an all-party meeting have been made to address these contentious issues adequately.
