IndiaTimes Tuesday, 19 September 2023
Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has expressed support for the Women Reservation Bill, which was recently approved by the Cabinet. He credited the demand for the bill to the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) and Sonia Gandhi. The bill seeks to reserve 33% of seats in the Lok Sabha and state legislative assemblies for women. Despite being introduced in the past, the bill has faced delays. BJP IT Cell in-charge Amit Malviya criticized the Congress for claiming credit for the bill, highlighting previous instances where it was not supported.

BIG TROUBLE! Amit Malviya Accused Of ‘Sexual Exploitation’ by RSS’s Shantanu Sinha, Congress Reacts

Congress leader Supriya Shrinate has called for the immediate removal of Amit Malviya, head of the BJP IT Cell, following serious allegations of exploitation. Shrinate highlighted accusations made by Shantanu Sinha, an RSS member linked to BJP leader Rahul Sinha, who claimed Malviya was involved in nefarious activities, including the exploitation of women in 5-star hotels and BJP offices in West Bengal. Emphasising the gravity of the charges, Shrinate insisted that justice for the women involved is paramount and that an independent inquiry is only possible if Malviya is removed from his influential position. The allegations surfaced less than 24 hours after Prime Minister Modi was sworn in for his third term, adding to the urgency of addressing the issue. #AmitMalviya #AmitMalviyaExploitation #CongressAmitMalviya #SupriyaShrinate #ShantanuSinha #RSS #BJP #Congress #PoliticalScandal #JusticeForWomen #ModiGovernment #ITCell #WestBengal #IndependentProbe #PoliticalAccountability #BreakingNews #IndiaPolitics ~PR.152~ED.155~GR.121~HT.96~
