Opposition parties opposing women’s quota, delimitation for politics: Kishan Reddy New Delhi, April 17 (PMI): Union Minister G Kishan Reddy on Friday accused the opposition parties of resisting the Women’s Reservation and Delimitation Bills for political mileage. Talking to newsmen, he asserted that the Centre’s proposed formula ensures fairness to all states, rejecting claims of injustice to southern regions. Reddy alleged that parties fear losing dominance if new leadership emerges through reservations and constituency changes. He also criticized regional parties for spreading “false propaganda” and called for a public debate on the issue. “Speaking in the Lok Sabha, the Prime Minister, the Home Minister, and the Central Government delivered a very clear message that no state would suffer any injustice whatsoever. Unlike the manner in which the delimitation was conducted when the Congress party was in power, we are introducing a Bill that is favorable and acceptable to all, ensuring equitable justice for every state. Despite this, the opposition continues to engage in false propaganda within Parliament. Citing census data, they claimed that the population in the South was declining and that the region would be penalized for having successfully implemented family planning measures. Initially, their argument was that if the constituency delimitation were to be undertaken following the census, the South would inevitably face injustice. However, today, recognizing the sentiments of the people and ensuring that the number of seats in the South does not diminish, the Modi government has introduced a formula involving a 50% increase”, he noted. Further, Kishan Reddy alleged that from the very beginning, it has been a calculated conspiracy by the Majlis party to ensure that the women are denied any form of political reservation. Statements made by Majlis party leaders specifically Akbaruddin Owaisi suggesting that the entry of the women into politics would give rise to new complications and problems, are officially recorded in the Assembly records. Fearing that a delimitation of constituencies in Hyderabad could jeopardize their own seats, the Majlis party is now conspiring in tandem with both the Congress and the BRS parties . Having held consultations with these two parties, the Majlis party is actively campaigning against both the proposed delimitation and the provision of Women’s reservations”, he remarked. (PMI)
