Video: Priyanka Gandhi calls bill defeat in Lok Sabha a victory for democracy

Priyanka Gandhi termed the defeat of the women’s reservation bill in the Lok Sabha a “big victory for democracy,” crediting Opposition unity for blocking what she alleged was a politically motivated move by the government. She accused the Centre of attempting to alter parliamentary structure through delimitation linked to the bill and said the outcome was a setback for the ruling alliance. Gandhi reiterated that the Opposition supports women’s reservation but urged the government to implement the 2023 version within existing seats, questioning its intent and commitment to women’s issues.
