Rijiju highlighted consultations with several other opposition parties, including DMK, SP, and BJD, and emphasized there is no constitutional requirement to prorogue Parliament within a specific timeframe after adjournment. He urged constructive cooperation from all parties for the passage of the bill and related women's reservation legislation.
