What Happened
Congress demanded immediate 33% women's reservation in Lok Sabha's 543 seats, accusing BJP of political misuse. Delhi CM Rekha Gupta countered, calling Congress 'anti-women.' The Constitutional Amendment Bill proposing 33% reservation from 2029 and increased Lok Sabha seats to 816 was defeated Friday.
