Women’s Reservation Bill failure: Modi govt’s nefarious plan to increase seats in Lok Sabha fails

Islamabad: The plan of Bharatiya Janata Party government in India, to increase the seats in Lok Sabha, lower house of parliament, from 543 to 850, has failed miserably.

According to Kashmir Media Service, it wanted to move forward with its nefarious plan under the guise of the Women’s Reservation Bill, but it had to face failure in the House for the first time.

The Women’s Reservation Bill could not get a two-thirds majority in the Lower House and thus its drama of parliamentary engineering completely flopped. The Modi government was preparing for a political bloodbath through the 131st Constitutional Amendment, but due to strong opposition from the southern states, its nefarious plan of seat-sharing collapsed.

The BJP government had hatched a well-planned conspiracy to punish the southern states that controlled the population and maintain the supremacy of northern India, but it failed. The drama of giving rights to women was actually a shameful attempt to unnaturally increase its numerical strength in the Lok Sabha, but the opposition thwarted this attempt.

Congress and other opposition parties have slammed the BJP government over the so-called Women’s Reservation Bill, saying that it has tried to change the federal structure under the guise of the Women’s Reservation Bill, but the defeat of this bill in Parliament is a victory for democracy.

They said the Women’s Reservation Act has already been passed in 2023, so instead of bringing a new bill in this regard to fulfill its political objectives, the Modi government should implement the passed law. They said that the BJP deliberately made the Women’s Reservation Bill subject to limitations and the only purpose behind this bill was to remain in power permanently. However, the opposition foiled its conspiracy to change the federal structure and weaken democracy.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in a statement has also severely criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said that after the failure of the constitutional bill brought for nefarious political purposes, the saffron party has now started its campaign.
