The Parliament is set to vote on three crucial bills, including the Women Reservation Amendment Bill 2026, the Delimitation Bill 2026, and the Union Territories laws. Ahead of the voting, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju met Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure a unanimous stand from the government in the Lok Sabha. While the women's quota bill is likely to see a smooth passage, all eyes remain on the Delimitation Bill as Rahul Gandhi keeps the suspense going following his speech. Prime Minister Modi has appealed to all Members of Parliament to support the reservation bill, emphasizing that it is a right of the women rather than a favour. However, the opposition has raised significant concerns, alleging that the women's bill is merely a mask to execute delimitation. They argue that the delimitation process will disadvantage southern states and non-BJP governed regions due to population metrics. Despite the commotion, the Parliament witnessed a healthy debate, with the government assuring that no state will face injustice or reduced seats.
