Maharashtra CM Fadnavis Criticizes Congress Over Women's Reservation BillPreviousNext

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis accused Congress leaders Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi of opposing the women's reservation bill, calling Rahul Gandhi the 'real assassin' of the legislation. Fadnavis questioned Congress's stance, citing their earlier support for the 2023 bill and alleging double standards. He affirmed the BJP's commitment to implementing 33% women's reservation by 2029, highlighting government initiatives aimed at women's empowerment. The Congress's outreach to women ahead of upcoming elections contrasts with Fadnavis's criticisms.
