Amidst the uproar over the Women’s Reservation Bill in the country, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the nation at 8.30 pm tonight. The government had brought a bill related to this in the Lok Sabha, which could not be passed. According to sources, during the cabinet meeting held today, PM Modi has accused the opposition of being guilty and working against women by not supporting the reservation bill for women.
The Prime Minister launched a scathing attack on the opposition in the cabinet meeting today. He said that the failure of the bill in the Lok Sabha is not a defeat for the government, but a protest against the rights given to the women of the country. According to sources, PM Modi directly linked this issue to women’s empowerment and raised questions on the intentions of the opposition. The government has not yet told on which topic the PM will address the nation, but obviously considering the political environment of the country, they are speculating that he can talk about the issue of the Constitution Amendment Bill regarding women’s reservation being defeated in the Lok Sabha.
‘Opposition against women’s rights’
In the cabinet meeting, PM Modi said that not supporting the bill related to women’s reservation is a big political mistake of the opposition. According to him, this step is like denying women their rights. He stressed that the opposition will have to suffer the consequences of this stance in the times to come.
‘Why was reservation not given in 50 years?’
Prime Minister Modi raised questions on the opposition parties and said that if they really wanted to give reservation to women then why did they not take such a step in the last 50 years. He has called it an issue that raises questions on the intentions of the opposition.
PM Modi warned that the opposition will have to bear the political loss of opposing the Women’s Reservation Bill. According to him, the public is looking at this issue seriously and it will also impact electoral politics.
Instructions to reach every village
PM Modi said that this message should be sent to every village of the country that the thinking of the opposition is negative towards women. He asked the leaders of the party and the government to go among the public and tell the truth on this issue.
This address of PM Modi to the nation is being considered quite different from all his previous addresses. In the last 12 years, whenever Prime Minister Modi addressed the nation, he mainly talked about the achievements of the government, major political and reformist decisions or handling the situation during disaster, but never had the government gone through such a situation in which a case like the failure of the Constitution Amendment Bill in the Lok Sabha had come to light. Therefore, it is believed that this time the address is going to be a little different.
