Rahul Gandhi Calls Electoral Bill 'Anti-National'

During a fiery speech in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi criticized the constitution amendment bill, labeling it an 'anti-national act' that seeks to alter India’s electoral map to retain power rather than empower women. He emphasized the need for genuine women’s reservation and accused the government of avoiding caste representation.

In a heated parliamentary session, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi delivered a strong critique of the constitution amendment bill, terming it an 'anti-national act' that aims to reshape India's electoral map under the guise of women's reservation.

Gandhi argued that the bill does not truly empower women and instead aims to prevent representation for OBCs, Dalits, and minorities. He emphasized the government's actions as bypassing caste census and expressed opposition's commitment to defeating the bill.

Gandhi also called the government's move a panic response to electoral challenges, emphasizing the need for genuine implementation of the Women’s Reservation Act. His speech, interspersed with protests from BJP members and defense by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, underscored deep political divides.
