New Delhi: PM Modi on Saturday made his first comments on the government’s move to implement the women’s reservation law from the next Lok Sabha elections, as he asked to put pressure on the opposition to get the women-related bills passed unopposed in Parliament, while dismissing as false the allegation that southern states will lose in delimitation due to their success in controlling population.Addressing an election rally in Thiruvalla, Kerala, he said the budget session of Parliament will be reconvened for three days from April 16 so that the 33% quota for women in the Lok Sabha and assemblies can be implemented by his government from the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. Modi also confirmed the delimitation exercise to increase the number of legislature seats by the same number that will be set aside for women.PM Modi said, “People are spreading lies that where the population is decreasing, seats will be reduced. We want Parliament’s seal of approval on a law that will ensure that Lok Sabha seats are not reduced in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Goa or Telangana.The PM appreciated their good work in population control.The government proposes to increase the number of seats in legislatures by about 50% – the number of Lok Sabha constituencies will be increased to 816 from the current 543 – so that the additional number is allocated exclusively for women, Modi said, but without specifying the exact number.“You should tell the Congress and LDF members that these laws should be passed unopposed… Women should put pressure on all political parties,” she told voters in CPM-led LDF-ruled Kerala. He said, “I also appeal to them that this right of our mothers and sisters has been pending for 40 years. This should not continue in the 2029 elections.”Modi said his government had called Congress for a meeting on the issue and had talked to the parties of the Indian opposition faction. While some opposition parties attended the meeting chaired by Home Minister Amit Shah, Congress, TMC and Left parties stayed away from it.Congress and the Left have called for an all-party meeting, with Parliament unlikely to meet in the middle of the month, a week before assembly elections in Tamil Nadu and West Bengal.Voting is going to be held in Kerala on 9 April BJP It believes its move to implement the women’s quota will help it strengthen its hold among women voters in the three states that have been strongholds of opposition parties.
