Centre’s conspiracy to change federal structure defeated; victory of Opposition unity, says Priyanka

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Saturday (April 18, 2026) accused the Centre of conspiring to change the federal structure of the country in the garb of women’s reservation, asserting that the defeat of its Bill in the Lok Sabha to amend the women’s quota law was a victory for the Constitution as well as Opposition unity.

She also demanded that the government implement the Women’s Reservation Act of 2023 on the current strength of the Lok Sabha.
