Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi launched a sharp attack on the government in the Lok Sabha, alleging that it is prioritising 'Manuvaad over Samvidhaan' and arguing that its stance on the caste census lacks clarity on representation.

Gandhi questioned the intent and structure of the proposed framework for the women's quota bill, outlining the opposition's objections.

He described the government's approach as fundamentally flawed, signalling a united resistance from Opposition parties within Parliament.

Gandhi alleged that the ruling party's motivations were political, suggesting that the proposal is aimed at reshaping electoral dynamics rather than strengthening representation.

He argued that the link between caste data and political representation is being diluted, raising concerns about delays in reflecting social realities in governance.

Gandhi offered support for the earlier version of the legislation, indicating the opposition's willingness to back immediate implementation under that framework.
