‘Without conditions’ vs ‘unconditional’: Rahul-Rijiju face-off over women’s quota

Union minister Kiren Rijiju has called upon Rahul Gandhi to lend his ‘unconditional’ support to the Women’s Reservation Bill. This appeal came after Gandhi’s comments highlighting the necessity of women’s freedom of expression for India’s comprehensive development. While the opposition has shown its backing for the bill, they contest its connection to delimitation. The Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam, 2023, is set to be implemented following parliamentary approval.
