Lucknow, April 18 (HS): Bharatiya
Janata Party (BJP) leader and Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad
Maurya said that by voting against the Women's Reservation Bill in the Lok
Sabha, the Congress and Samajwadi Party have clearly stated that they do not
want women's reservation in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies. These parties
are trapped in patriarchal thinking and do not want women to participate
equally in the nation's welfare. However, these parties should understand
clearly that the BJP is committed to women's reservation and will implement it.
The Deputy Chief Minister wrote on his social media account, The SP
and Congress should better understand that the anger of women power will cost
both anti-women parties dearly in the coming years. There's no doubt that
Congress will be halved in 2029, and the SP will be wiped out in UP in 2027.
Mungerilal's sweet dreams have now become SP Bahadur's sweet dreams, which will
never be fulfilled under any circumstances.
Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh
Pathak said on Saturday that the Congress, TMC, and Samajwadi Party prevented
the passage of the Constitution Amendment Bill, the Nari Shakti Vandan
Act, in the Lok Sabha. The opposition has betrayed half the country's
population, approximately 700 million women. The decision to defeat the bill
granting 33 percent reservation to women is highly condemnable. The opposition
will have to face the wrath of women not only in the 2029 Lok Sabha
elections, but at every level, in every election, and in every place. Our campaign
to respect women will continue, and we will not rest until we give them their
rights.
