I was ordered by @Lenskart_com to cut my shikha and remove my tilak. When I refused to do so, I was fired. - Zeel Soghasia This is blatant discrimination and bigotry that goes beyond adhering to some internal memo. Mr Soghasia must be recalled and reinstated. @peyushbansal

@vaishnaroy @ECISVEEP Model code of conduct happens 48 hours before voting. Bengal elections and Tamil elections are still 4 days away. Are you really a journalist?

Mr. Prakash Rai, though you call yourself a Christian atheist, you respected your mother’s faith at her funeral a gesture we honor as a son’s duty. In the same spirit, you must respect the beliefs of millions. Atheism is not mocking gods or believers,it is a rational way of thinking. Hinduism is the only religion that even embraces atheist philosophy through its schools of thought. To dismiss such a tradition is not rational it is disrespectful. In other countries, such words could have landed you in grave trouble. This is my straight comment on you, and I will never counter with people like you who fall below dignity in the future. Respecting diverse belief systems is the true mark of rationality and responsibility. @prakashraaj

Now that the 131st Amendment Bill failed, allocation of Lok Sabha seats will be based on 2026 census data. As per current estimates, seven States will likely lose 35 seats: AP (-5), Telangana (-3), TN (-10), Karnataka (-2), Kerala (-7), Odisha (-4), and WB (-4). Four States will likely gain 34 seats: UP (+12), Bihar (+10), MP (+5), and Rajasthan (+7). BJP is widely believed to be the potential beneficiary of redistribution of seats to States based on 2026 population. In a stunning act of self-denial, the NDA government came forward to freeze the current share of States based on the 1971 census data. There could be many reasons for BJP committing to such a freeze - putting the nation above the party, paving the way for expanding their footprint in the South, or avoiding a divisive issue when the nation has to focus on growth and prosperity in the face of global challenges. Whatever be the motivation of BJP, the seven States that lost share of population are offered an unexpected gift. You don't look a gift horse in the mouth! Surprisingly, the parties which have great stakes in the South and East have scored a spectacular self goal. This is a classic case of cutting the nose to spite the face. In 2001, as the freeze in seats was expiring, I was deeply involved in persuading the then Vajpayee government to continue the freeze in the number of seats allocated to States for another 25 years. An unwieldy coalition and the economic challenge posed by external sanctions after the Pokharan explosion demanded national unity, and the parties responded with the 84th Amendment. Now again a priceless opportunity arose, and the Opposition squandered it without any strategic thinking. If political animosity makes you oblivious of your own interest, or larger interests of fostering unity and focusing on growth and harmony, it is a sign of dysfunctional politics. I appeal to all parties to come together and find a harmonious solution to the thorny problem of seats allocation in the face of demographic imbalances. National unity and our quest for opportunity and prosperity for all demand a fair and swift resolution. In the long run migration will resolve the imbalances. Already millions of migrant workers are building and sustaining the economies of several States in the South, West and North. That is why, despite low fertility rate, Maharashtra's share of the population is increasing. In the US, dramatic internal migration changed the demography and representation over the years. People move freely to States where there is growth and jobs are created. In a century, Florida increased its representation in the US Congress from 4 to 28, California from 11 to 52, Texas from 18 to 38, and Washington from 5 to 10. Owing to outward migration, New York lost seats, from 43 to 26, Pennsylvania from 36 to 17, Illinois from 27 to 17, Ohio from 22 to 15, and Missouri from 16 to 8. We should make it easy for people to migrate to other States and recognize and respect their constitutional rights everywhere and make their life easier and safe. That will resolve our demographic challenges. Most states reached low fertility levels, and Bihar, UP, MP, Rajasthan and Jharkhand too are going to reach there in a few years. We need a reasoned and pragmatic approach to grow together and become strong. Let us persuade parties to shed inflammatory and divisive rhetoric and focus on quality education and skills and opportunities for all.

VENUGOPAL : Are you ready to bring reservation by increasing 50% seats in every state? AMIT SHAH : “Yes, I’m ready. Give me an hour, I’ll come back with an amendment to increase 50% seats across all states.. ..will you agree to it?" *pin drop silence*

Today, we all saw the true face of Congress, TMC, DMK and Samajwadi Party. By blocking the Constitutional Amendment that would reserve one-third of seats in Lok Sabha and State Assemblies, they have denied women their legitimate rights. The nation is watching, and so are its women. The insult meted out today to Nari Shakti will never be forgiven.

She has used her entire parliamentary career so far for the women of Palestine but has betrayed the women of her own country. What a sad day.💔💔

Sonia Gandhi– MP Priyanka Vadra– MP Supriya Sule– MP Kanimozhi– MP Dimple Yadav– MP They're all MPs because of nepotism. They all voted against Women’s Reservation Bill. They do not want women from ordinary families to become MPs because they see it as their special privilege.

Dintlo kuda ntr ki stool esnar kadara 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT BILL FAILS by 48 VOTES! Now take this to every woman in Bharat that- ~CONgress doesn't want women to get their rights ~CHINDIs don't want women empowerment ~CHINDIs want Male Dominant Dynasts to keep control over society CHINDIs ARE ANTI-WOMEN!

देश की आधी आबादी, 70 करोड़ महिलाओं को धोखा देने और उनका विश्वास खोने के बाद कोई कैसे विजय का जश्न मना सकता है? विपक्ष का यह जश्न हर उस महिला का अपमान है, जो दशकों से अपने अधिकार का इंतजार कर रही है। कांग्रेस और उसके सहयोगी कितनी बार महिलाओं के साथ विश्वासघात करेंगे? कई बार विजय जैसी प्रतीत होने वाली अहंकार की खुशी, असलियत में छिपी हुई एक बड़ी पराजय होती है, जिसे कुछ लोग समझ नहीं पाते।

மக்களவையில், பெண்களுக்கு அரசியல் உரிமை வழங்கும் பெண்கள் ஒதுக்கீட்டு மசோதா நிறைவேறாமல், திமுக மற்றும் காங்கிரஸ் கட்சிகள் எதிர்த்து வாக்களித்திருக்கின்றன. சுமார் 30 ஆண்டுகளாக, பெண்களுக்கு அரசியல் பிரதிநிதித்துவத்தில் இட ஒதுக்கீடு வழங்கும் முயற்சி, தொடர்ந்து காங்கிரஸ் மற்றும் திமுக உள்ளிட்ட அதன் கூட்டணிக் கட்சிகளால் தடைபட்டு வருகின்றன. கடந்த 2010 ஆம் ஆண்டும், தங்கள் ஆட்சிக் காலத்தில், இந்த மசோதாவை தாக்கல் செய்யாமல் துரோகம் செய்தது காங்கிரஸ் திமுக கூட்டணி. தற்போது, மீண்டும் ஒரு முறை, இந்த மசோதாவுக்கு எதிராக வாக்களித்து, நாடு முழுவதும் உள்ள மகளிருக்குத் துரோகம் இழைத்திருக்கின்றன. பெண்களின் அரசியல் பிரதிநிதித்துவத்தைத் தடுக்கும் திமுக, காங்கிரஸ் கட்சிகள், பெண்களுக்கு எதிரான கட்சிகள் என்பதற்கு இதுவே சாட்சி.

Absolute shame❗️ The entire nation watched the opposition’s hypocrisy today. They had a historic chance to stand with our #NariShakti, and they failed. Women empowerment, for them, exists only in speeches and slogans. They chose politics over progress. Their resistance to the Nari Shakti Vandan Bill has exposed exactly whose interests they truly serve. The women of India are watching — and they will not forget this! But for us, women empowerment is not for mere speeches. It is a commitment. We will be on the streets from tomorrow and we will ensure every right, every justice, every honour to our Nari Shakti. #NariShaktiVandan #MahilaVirodhiCongress #AntiWomenAlliance

Sad day for Indian democracy. Once again, Congress has betrayed the women of this country, like in the past, by their opposition to the Women’s Reservation Bill. History will record this. And the women of India surely will make the Congress pay for this sin.

आज लोकसभा में बहुत अजीब दृश्य दिखा। नारी शक्ति वंदन अधिनियम के लिए जरूरी संविधान संशोधन बिल को कांग्रेस, TMC, DMK और समाजवादी पार्टी ने पारित नहीं होने दिया। महिलाओं को 33% आरक्षण देने के बिल को गिरा देना, उसका उत्साह मनाना और जयनाद करना सचमुच निंदनीय और कल्पना से परे है। अब देश की महिलाओं को लोकसभा और विधानसभा में 33% आरक्षण, जो उनका अधिकार था, वह नहीं मिल पाएगा। कांग्रेस और उसके सहयोगियों ने यह पहली बार नहीं किया, बल्कि बार-बार किया है। उनकी यह सोच न महिलाओं के हित में है और न देश के। मैं उन्हें बताना चाहता हूँ कि नारी शक्ति के अपमान की यह बात यहाँ नहीं रुकेगी, दूर तक जाएगी। विपक्ष को ‘महिलाओं का आक्रोश’ न सिर्फ 2029 लोकसभा चुनाव में, बल्कि हर स्तर, हर चुनाव और हर स्थान पर झेलना पड़ेगा।

In Lok Sabha today, the bill introduced to increase women's representation was opposed by the DMK, the Congress, and their allies, and they voted against its passage. For nearly three decades, the effort to ensure reservation for women in the Lok Sabha has been repeatedly stalled by the Congress party & their alliance partners, including the DMK. Even in 2010, when they were in power, the Congress–DMK alliance failed to introduce the bill in the Lok Sabha, and Today, by once again opposing it, they have turned their backs on women across the country. Their continued resistance to an increase in women’s political representation speaks for itself; the DMK and Congress stand exposed yet again as parties unwilling to support women's rightful place in governance.

17 April will always be remembered as a Black Day. The Opposition led by Congress has proven that they are ANTI WOMEN. Shame.

It's not that the Opposition is opposing only the Women's Reservation Bill; they were against the abolition of Article 370, they were against the building of Ram Mandir, they were against the CAA, they were against Triple Talaq, they were against GST... - Shri @AmitShah
