Rahul Gandhi Slams Women’s Reservation Bill: Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, delivered a sharp critique of the Women’s Reservation Bill during the special Parliament session, questioning both its intent and its impact on inclusive representation.

‘Women Shape Our National Imagination’
Beginning his remarks on a reflective note, Gandhi highlighted the influence of women in shaping individual and collective journeys.
He said, “Women are a driving force in our national imagination. All of us have been influenced, taught, learnt a lot from women in their lives…”

“This is not a women’s bill; this has nothing to do with empowerment of women: Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha.”
He further escalated his attack, “This entire opposition is going to defeat you in the parliament.”
