PM Narendra Modi On Women’s Reservation Bill: Dharmendra ji, I am grateful to you, Akhilesh ji is my friend, why did PM Narendra Modi say this in the Lok Sabha?

New Delhi. While speaking in the Lok Sabha on the Women’s Reservation Bill, something happened that Prime Minister Narendra Modi thanked SP MP Dharmendra Yadav and called Akhilesh Yadav his friend. Hearing this from Modi, all the members including Akhilesh Yadav smiled and Akhilesh greeted Modi with folded hands.
