Women's reservation, delimitation: Opposition rejects bill in Lok Sabha, this is NDA government's first legislative defeat

New Delhi: The united opposition on Friday rejected Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “voice of conscience” and the Home Minister’s last-minute appeal. Amit ShahOffering to write into the Women’s Reservation Bill that Lok Sabha seats would increase by 50% in all states, handing the government its first legislative defeat in 12 years, the proposed legislation failed to receive the required two-thirds votes in the House. Opposition parties – who had alleged that the bill promising a quota for women from 2029 is a ploy to cut the south’s representation in the Lok Sabha, redrawing the political map for the BJP’s benefit and delaying the caste census – did not agree with Shah’s claim that the weight of southern states in the Lok Sabha would increase marginally under the proposed formula and that the government was committed to carrying out the caste census. The Constitution (131st Amendment) Bill received 298 votes in support and 230 votes against it. To pass it, at least 352 votes in favor of the members present in the House were required. With the passage of the Central Bill, the Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiran Rijiju Said that two other bills “intrinsically” linked to the main proposal, including delimitation, would be withdrawn.

Shah told the opposition, you will have no place to hide in the elections.Responding to the debate on constitutional amendment bills for women’s reservation and delimitation, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said the two primary reasons behind the bills are to ensure time-bound implementation of women’s reservation by 2029 and to implement the idea of ​​”one person, one vote, one value” in the true spirit. The Malkajgiri Lok Sabha seat in Telangana has more than 39 lakh voters, Shah said, emphasizing that 127 constituencies have more than 20 lakh voters. He rejected the opposition’s charge that delimitation would result in the southern states losing importance in the Lok Sabha. On average, a Lok Sabha seat in the South has far fewer voters than in the North. On caste reservation, Shah said, “The BJP government will run as per the collective spirit of the Parliament. There should be no doubt about it.” He said that for the BJP, representation and participation of the people of the country (in the legislatures) is most important, showing a rare willingness to engage on the issue. However, he rejected the quota for Muslims and said it violated the Constitution. “We will not allow anyone to implement this.” Taking an aggressive stance on women’s quota, the Home Minister, as the Prime Minister had said on Thursday, warned the opposition of a strong reaction. “If you don’t vote in support of the bill it will fall, but the women of the country are seeing who is standing in their way. You will have no place to hide in the elections.” The opposition will have to face the anger of women not only in the 2029 Lok Sabha elections but at every level, in every election and everywhere. Later, he took to Twitter to scold the opposition for celebrating the defeat of the bills. The most dramatic moment during his reply came when he accepted Congress MP KC Venugopal’s demand that it be written in the bill that seats in every state would increase by 50%. However, he quickly rejected Venugopal’s other demand to delimit the Women’s Reservation Bill, saying it is a “tempting trap” to deny women quota in 2029. He took on Rahul Gandhi’s claim of Congress being a supporter of the OBC issue. Listing decisions like not implementing Kalelkar Commission recommendations for OBC reservation under Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi not acting on Mandal Commission recommendations and Rajiv Gandhi opposing it, Shah said, “Congress is the most anti-OBC party.” He said, Congress has never made any member of the OBC community the Prime Minister, whereas BJP has given the country a Prime Minister from an extremely backward caste in the form of Modi. Recalling the opposition party’s stand on the Shah Bano verdict and triple talaq, he said the Congress and its allies in the Indian camp have a history of rejecting the legislative proposal for reservation five times since the idea was first introduced during the PV Narasimha Rao government, and at times it has depended on its allies to defeat the proposal. He said the Congress has clearly opposed all the signature initiatives of the Modi government – from scrapping special status for Jammu and Kashmir to the Citizenship (Amendment) Act.

Scottie Scheffler sends warning after NFL star Tony Romo beats Jordan Spieth as buzz grows at RBC Heritage Round

When Scottie Scheffler was asked about Tony Romo before RBC Heritage he gave a funny and honest answer. The World No. 1 spoke to reporters on Thursday and reacted to Romo’s claim that he wanted to beat him at golf. Rather than ignore this, Scheffler brought up something interesting. He revealed that Romo had already defeated Jordan Spieth before, which immediately attracted attention.This comment soon became a topic of discussion as Romo is better known for football than golf. As Celebrity Net Worth reports, Romo has an estimated net worth of $80 million, but his golf game is also clearly serious. Scheffler kept things light but also showed respect for Romo’s ability, making it clear he wasn’t taking him lightly at all.

Scotty Scheffler talks Tony Romo’s win over Jordan Spieth as he builds momentum at RBC Heritage

Scottie Scheffler didn’t try to tear Tony Romo down at all. Instead, he smiled and revealed something many people might not know. “He’s beaten Jordan before, so thanks to Jordan for that,” Scheffler said. He then added, “But he hasn’t beaten me yet. I’m not going to say he can’t do it because he’s a good golfer, so I certainly wouldn’t go out and say he can’t, and we play a lot of golf together too, and in golf you never know what’s going to happen.”Two things emerged from that reaction at once. First of all, Scheffler respects Romo’s game. Second, he is confident in his level. Golf can change quickly, and Scheffler made that clear with his words.Scheffler, meanwhile, is still focused on his PGA Tour season. He started off strong by winning The American Express earlier this year. After that, he remained consistent with solid finishes, including a tie for third place at the WM Phoenix Open and a tie for fourth place at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. His form remained steady, even though he did not win every event.His most recent major result came at the Masters, where he tied for second after four consecutive rounds of 70, 74, 65 and 68. That performance showed he is still at the top of his game.Now at RBC Heritage, Scheffler is off to a positive start. He opened with 3-under 68. His round got off to a slow start with a bogey on the first hole, but he quickly recovered. He made birdies on both the front and back sides to remain at par.Speaking after the round, Scheffler said, “I think I did some good things there. The conditions were tough at the end of the day. Yeah, I did a lot of good things. I would have liked to have had a better start, but other than that, I thought I did pretty well.”While Scheffler is building his round step by step, Ludwig Aberg has taken the early lead with an 8-under 63. The tournament is still open, but Scheffler looks settled and ready to move on.

Tamil Nadu elections: Sasikala, Ramadoss can spoil AIADMK’s game. india news

Tamil Nadu elections: Sasikala, Ramadoss can spoil AIADMK's game

Chennai: Two weeks ago, in Tirupparankundram constituency of Madurai, VK SasikalaThe confidant of former Tamil Nadu chief minister late J Jayalalitha hinted at a clear mission for the April 23 assembly elections: wooing the Thevars, a dominant OBC community in the state’s southern and central regions, a block once seen as the backbone of the state. AIADMKsupport of. Through her campaign, Sasikala, who only last month founded a new organisation, All India Puratchi Thalaivar Makkal Munnetra Kazhagam, has consistently targeted the AIADMK general secretary. Edappadi K Palaniswami. Sasikala feels that many people in the community are unhappy with the EPS. He has also signed an agreement with PMK founder S Ramadoss. Both have a sense of betrayal – Sasikala was sidelined in the AIADMK after Jayalalithaa’s death, while Ramadoss has lost control of the PMK to his son. Sasikala has fielded 75 candidates, of which about 50% are in Thevar belt. Ramadoss has fielded candidates in 37 constituencies in the Vanniyar belt, including Dharmapuri, where his daughter-in-law Soumya Anbumani is in the fray. Vanniyars are a politically influential and numerically significant group in northern Tamil Nadu, comprising about 25% of the total population. Like Sasikala, the veteran PMK leader is also expected to spoil the game of the AIADMK front as he is targeting his son and PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss, which is part of the opposition alliance. Political observers say that with the state being a multi-cornered contest, even a division of around 1,000 votes could tilt the results. In 2021, the victory margin in 25 constituencies was less than 3,000 votes. Ramdas is giving an emotional statement accusing Anbumani of betraying him. Their candidates have continued their campaign targeting Anbumani more than her political opponents. “Sasikala’s criticism of Palaniswami and his supporters over her removal from party posts will have ramifications. Similarly, you cannot erase four decades of Ramdas and his politics for the community. Together, they will definitely work to spoil the AIADMK-led front in the northern, delta and southern districts,” said political critic Rajan Kurai Krishnan. Apart from Sasikala and Ramadoss, Puthiya Tamilagam founder K Krishnaswamy has fielded candidates in around 60 constituencies in the western and southern regions. He also targeted AIADMK. Meanwhile, Tamiliga Vazhvurimai Katchi functionary T Velmurugan has fielded candidates in several constituencies after walking out from the DMK-led front.
