Priyanka Gandhi: The women of the country are not stupid, bring the old bill and see who is anti-women

NEW DELHI: Priyanka Gandhi, addressing a press conference on the Women's Reservation Bill, said that what happened yesterday was a big victory for democracy.

The government's conspiracy has been defeated. Priyanka Gandhi said that this was a victory for the Constitution and a victory for the opposition's unity.

She said that she listened to the speeches of Amit Shah and the Prime Minister. Both of them repeatedly said on several different occasions that "if you do not agree with this, then you cannot sit here."

Their intention was clear — what did they want to do? We were shocked that the Parliament session was suddenly called.Priyanka Gandhi said that they wanted to remain in power by any means, and for this, they had hatched a conspiracy.

For this, they used women. Priyanka Gandhi said that they want to become the messiahs of women, but it is not that easy. Priyanka Gandhi said that when incidents like Hathras, Unnao, and Manipur happened, why were women not asked about then?

This was not about women; it was about delimitation. That is why they repeatedly took the name of women. I am happy that the opposition united.Priyanka Gandhi said that the women of the country are not fools who will let you say or do anything in their name.

Targeting the government, Priyanka Gandhi said that the bill which was passed unanimously in 2023 should be implemented immediately. She said that if they are talking about giving rights to women, then give them the rights now, instead of twisting the issue and misleading the public.
