Rahul Gandhi believes the bill is more about political realignment through redistricting than improving women’s representation.He claimed that the proposed delimitation exercise could reshape the electoral map in favor of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party while weakening the existing social justice framework. He said the move could reduce the political influence of backward communities and marginalized groups.Opposition parties are also concerned that linking the implementation of women’s reservation to delimitation could have wider implications for federal balance, regional representation and caste-based political participation.
