News India Live, Digital Desk: There is an earthquake in the country’s politics at this time. Prime Minister Narendra Modi can address the nation tonight after the ‘Nari Shakti Vandan Act’ (Amendment Bill) brought regarding women’s reservation failed in the Parliament. Quoting sources, it is reported that the Prime Minister will present his views on the failure of this important bill to be passed and will assure the ‘women power’ of the country about the next step of the government. According to the report of Zee News, this address of PM is considered very important after the ruckus in the special session of Parliament.

What happened in Parliament? Why did the historic bill fall?

On Friday (April 17), the Constitution Amendment Bill related to women’s reservation failed in the Lok Sabha due to not getting the required two-thirds majority. During voting in the House, 298 votes were cast in favor, while 230 members voted against. The opposition, especially Congress and Rahul Gandhi, strongly opposed linking the bill to ‘population limitation’. The opposition alleges that the government wants to reduce the political power of the southern and north-eastern states through this. The House was adjourned till Saturday as the bill fell due to lack of majority.

Prime Minister may attack the opposition

Before voting, Prime Minister Modi had appealed to all parties to show sensitivity and create history. The government is seeing the bill falling as a ‘missed big opportunity’. In a possible address tonight, PM Modi can directly attack the role of opposition parties and allegations of creating obstacles in the rights of women. BJP is preparing to make this a big issue in the coming elections.

The target was to implement in 2029

It is noteworthy that through this bill, the government was preparing a roadmap to reserve 33 percent seats for women before the 2029 Lok Sabha elections. PM Modi had also reiterated his commitment in the ‘Nari Shakti Vandan Sammelan’ held on 13 April. However, due to the opposition being adamant on the issue of delimitation, this process seems to be stalled at the moment.

Security and increasing political turmoil

After this development, political activity is intense in many parts of the country including the capital Delhi. The discussion has started again in the Parliament House since Saturday morning, but after the crisis over the future of the bill, now all eyes are on the Prime Minister’s address tonight. Will the PM announce any new ordinance or alternative path? It will be interesting to see.
