Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva on Friday said that the Opposition parties stand exposed for their anti-women stand, adding that some of them like the Congress, RJD and SP totally opposed the lawful 33 per cent women’s reservation with increased parliamentary seats.
He stated today, Congress needs to tell the country why between 1971 to 2009, they never found it important to increase Parliament seats while carrying out delimitation of constituencies. “We were always clear that we need Opposition support for this pious cause which they all have refused, and now stand exposed before more then 70 crore women of India,” he stated.
