New Delhi, April 15: Several opposition parties on Wednesday decided to unitedly vote against the delimitation provisions in the Constitution amendment bill in Parliament, while asserting that they are not against reservation for women in legislative bodies.
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the opposition parties are opposed to the manner in which the bill is being brought and alleged that it is politically motivated.
The leaders of several INDIA bloc constituents, besides the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), met here on Wednesday to evolve a joint strategy in Parliament during its three-day special sitting starting Thursday.
In a post on X, Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh said, “The Opposition will do whatever it takes to defeat the Constitution Amendment Bill especially. The country should prepare itself for a political earthquake.”
