‘No one can call me anti-women’: Shashi Tharoor shares lighthearted exchange with Kiren Rijiju

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor shared a lighthearted exchange with Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, where Rijiju conceded Tharoor couldn’t be labelled anti-women. This follows the defeat of a bill proposing 33% women’s reservation in legislatures, which aimed to increase Lok Sabha seats. The government’s proposal faced opposition, with the Congress criticising the timing and linkage to delimitation.
