'PM Modi Doing Nautanki': TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee Targets Govt Over Women Quota Bill

TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee, addressing the Lok Sabha, criticised the government over the three proposed bills, including women’s reservation and delimitation, saying his party opposes all of them. He accused the Prime Minister of engaging in “drama” and termed the move a political gimmick. Banerjee questioned the timing of delimitation, especially with the Census process underway, and objected to using older data. He said women’s reservation should not be used as a bargaining tool and urged the government to bring a bill for 50% reservation within the current strength. He also alleged that the broader objective behind the proposals was to push delimitation and increase seats, rather than genuinely address representation concerns.
