NDTV
Uma Bharti expressed disappointment that the bill reserving 33% of seats for women in the Lok Sabha and state legislatures did not include a quota for OBC women.
Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's mega BJP workers meet in Madhya Pradesh's Bhopal today, former chief minister and senior party leader Uma Bharti said the recently-cleared Women's Reservation Bill should not be implemented without a sub-quota for the OBC community. प्रधानमंत्री जी का भोपाल की धरती पर स्वागत। वह गरीबों एवं पिछड़ों के मसीहा हैं, मुझे यकीन है कि वह महिला आरक्षण में ओबीसी आरक्षण पर सकारात्मक संकेत देकर जाएंगे।@narendramodi@BJP4India@BJP4MP#WomenReservationBill2023
Ms Bharti posted on social media that she expects the PM to give a "positive signal" in this regard.
"Prime Minister is welcomed in the land of Bhopal. He is the messiah of the poor and backward, I am sure he will give a positive signal on OBC reservation for women," Ms Bharti posted on X today.
