I have come to talk to my daughters. Today every citizen of India is seeing how the flight of women power of India has been stopped. His dreams were brutally crushed. Despite our best efforts, we were not successful. The Nari Shakti Vadhan Act could not be amended. And I apologize to all the mothers and sisters for this. Friends, for us the country and martyrs are paramount. But when party interest becomes everything for some people,
bigger than national interest. So women power has to Same thing has happened this time also. The women power of the country has had to bear the brunt of the selfish politics of parties like Congress, DMK, TMC and Samajwadi Party. Friends, yesterday the eyes of crores of women of the country were on the Parliament. The I was also very sad to see that when this proposal for women's welfare was defeated, clapping happily. These people were patting the table after snatching away the rights of women. not just thumping the table. That was an attack on the woman's self-respect and self-esteem.
You were not there. That was an attack on the woman's self-respect and self-esteem. And the woman forgets everything. She never forgets her insult. Therefore, the pain of the behavior of Congress and its supporters in the Parliament will always remain in the heart of every woman. see these leaders in their area, they will remember that these same people had celebrated the stopping of women reservation in the Parliament. Celebrated happiness. I will tell the parties who opposed the Nari Shakti Vandan Amendment in Parliament yesterday that these people are taking women power for granted.
They are forgetting that the women of the 21st century are keeping an eye on every incident in the country. She is sensing his intentions. And she knows the truth very well. Therefore, the opposition will definitely be punished for the sin it has committed by opposing women's reservation. These parties have also insulted the sentiments of the Constitution makers they will not be able to escape punishment for this from the public. Friends, the not meant to snatch anything from anyone. The Nari Shakti Vandan amendment was meant to give something to everyone. There was an amendment to give.
This was an amendment to give women their rights, which were pending for 40 years, from the effort to make women co-travellers in India's development journey and to connect everyone. Nari Shakti Bandhan amendment is the need of the hour. The Nari Shakti Bandhan Amendment was an attempt to increase the power of every state equally, North, South, East and West. This was an attempt to give more power to the voice of all the states in the Parliament. The state may be small, the state may be big, the state may have less population or the state may have more population.
Everyone was trying to increase their power in equal proportion. But this honest effort has been Parties like Congress, TMC, Samajwadi Party, DMK are guilty of this foeticide. These are criminals of the country's constitution. These are criminals of the women power of the country. Friends, Congress hates the issue of women reservation. He has always conspired to stop women reservation. Every time efforts were made in this direction, Congress has created hurdles in it.
This time too, Congress and its allies resorted to one lie after another to stop women reservation. Sometimes regarding numbers and sometimes in some other way, Congress and its allies tried to mislead the country. By doing this, these parties have exposed their true face before the women power of India. He has taken off his mask. Friends, I personally hoped that Congress would correct its decades old mistake. Congress will atone for its sins. But Congress lost the opportunity to create history by standing in favor of women. lost its existence in most parts of the country. keeping itself alive by riding on the backs of regional parties. But Congress
also does not want the strength of regional parties to increase. Therefore, by opposing this amendment, Congress has hatched a Friends, Congress, Samajwadi Party, DMK, TMC and other parties have been making the same excuses and the same arguments every time for so many years. By creating some technical problem or the other, they have been robbing the rights of women. The understood this dirty pattern of politics and has also known the reason behind it. Brothers and sisters, there is a big reason for the opposition to the Nari Shakti Bandhan Act. These family-oriented parties are afraid that if women become empowered, the leadership of these family-oriented parties will be in danger. They would never want
women outside their family to progress. Today, thousands and lakhs of women have proved their capabilities in Panchayats and local bodies. When she wants to move ahead and enter the Lok Sabha and Legislative Assemblies. Wants to serve the country. There is a feeling of insecurity among the family members regarding him. After delimitation, there will be more seats for women. The stature of women will increase. Therefore, these people have opposed the Nari Shakti Diminishing Amendment. The women power of the country will My dear countrymen, Congress and its allies are continuously lying on delimitation.
They want to ignite the fire of division under this pretext. Because divide and rule. Congress has inherited this politics from the British and even today Congress is running on the same basis. Congress has always fuelled sentiments that create divisions in the country. Therefore, this lie was spread that delimitation would cause loss to some states. Whereas the government has made it clear from day one that neither the ratio of participation of any state will change nor the representation of anyone will decrease, rather the seats of all the states will increase in the same proportion.
Still parties like Congress, DMK, TMC and Samajwadi Party are not ready to accept it. Friends, this amendment bill was an opportunity for all parties and all states. If this bill had been passed, the seats of every state like Tamil Nadu, Bengal, UP, Kerala would have increased. But due to their selfish politics, these parties also betrayed the people of their states. Like DMK had the opportunity to make more Tamil people MPs and MLAs. Could have strengthened the voice of Tamil Nadu. But he lost that opportunity.
TMC also had the opportunity to take the people of Bengal forward. But TMC also lost this opportunity. Samajwadi Party also had a chance to reduce the stigma of anti-women image. But SP also missed this. Samajwadi Party has already forgotten Lohia ji. trampled all the dreams of Lohia ji under its feet. SP is against women reservation. The women of UP and the country will never forget this. Friends, by opposing reservation for women, Congress has once again proved one thing. is an anti-reform party. Whatever decision, whatever reform is necessary for the developed India of the 21st century, whatever decision the country is taking, Congress
opposes all of them. She rejects him. It disrupts that work. This is the history of Congress. And this is the negative politics of Congress. Friends, this is the same Congress which opposed Jan Dhan, Aadhar, mobile and women power. Congress opposed digital payments. Congress opposed GST. Congress opposed reservation for the poor of the general category. Congress opposed the law against triple talaq.
Congress opposed the removal of Article 370. Our Constitution and our courts name of reform is heard, Congress runs with a placard of protest. Any work that strengthens the country. Congress uses all its power to create obstacles in it. Congress opposes One Nation One Election. Congress opposes driving out infiltrators from the country. Congress opposes SIR, the purification of voter list. Opposes reform in Congress and the Board.
Friends, Congress even opposed the CAA law which provides protection to refugees. By also obstructs the country's efforts to end Maoist Naxalite violence. Congress has had the same pattern. If any reform comes, lie and spread confusion. History is witness. Congress has always chosen this negative path. Friends, whatever work is necessary for the country, Congress sweeps it under the carpet. Due to this attitude of Congress, India could not reach the heights of development which it deserves. At the time of independence,
many other countries also became independent along with us. Most countries are far ahead of us. And the reason for this was that Congress kept blocking every reform. To hang, to mislead, to obstruct, this has been the principle of Congress. This has been the work culture of Congress. Congress kept the border disputes with neighboring countries pending. Congress kept pending disputes related to water sharing with Pakistan. Congress kept the decision on OBC reservation pending for 40 years. Congress stalled One Rank One Pension for soldiers for 40 years.
Friends, this attitude of Congress has always caused great harm to the country. The country has suffered the consequences of every opposition, every indecision, every deceit of the Congress. Generations of the country have suffered. All the major challenges facing the country today have arisen from this attitude of Congress. Therefore, this fight is not just about one law. against the anti-reform mentality of Congress. In which there is only negativity, negativity. And I have no doubt that all the sisters and daughters of the country will give a befitting reply to this mentality of Congress. Friends, some people are calling the shattering of dreams of the women of the country a failure of the government. But this topic was
not about success or failure or credit. I had also said in the Parliament that let half the population get their rights. I will give the credit for this to all the opposition people by publishing an advertisement. But those who looked at women with a conservative mindset still stuck to their lies. Friends, the fight to ensure participation of women power has been going on for decades. So many women have raised this issue with me. Many sisters have Mothers, sisters and daughters of my country, I know that you all are sad today.
I am also saddened by your sorrow. Today, we may not have received the 66% votes required to pass the bill. But I know that the blessings of 100% women power of the country are with us. I assure every woman of the country. We will remove every obstacle coming in the way of women reservation. I will remove it. Our morale is also high. Our courage is unwavering and our resolve is unwavering. Parties opposing women's reservation. This will never be able to stop the women power of the country from BJP NDA's resolve to empower women power remains intact.
Yesterday we did not have the numbers. But that doesn't mean we lost. Our self-confidence is invincible. Our efforts will not stop. We will have more opportunities in the future. We have to work for the dreams of half the population, for the future of the country.
