Bharatiya Rashtriya Samiti (BRS) leader K Kavitha demanded that the Women’s Reservation Bill should be brought immediately, stating that it will help increase the representation of women in Parliament.
K Kavitha said, “Whoever speaks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi is called and questioned. It is wrong, everyone has the right to question. They (BJP) first raided business houses and tried to control them, then they tried to control political parties.”
“We will fight. We have not done anything wrong. Whenever we will be called by them (ED) we will go and answer,” she added. Talking about the Women’s Reservation Bill, the BRS MLC said that it will help in increasing women’s participation in Parliament.
“Women’s Reservation Bill should be immediately brought. It will also help to increase women’s participation in the Parliament. For this, we are organising a round table meeting. Those who support this bill are called today. We are trying to put pressure on the government to bring this bill. We have requested Congress also to participate,” Kavitha said.
Kavitha will be chairing a round table conversation on the Women’s Reservation Bill on Wednesday in the national capital.
During the meeting, representatives of various political parties, civil society organizations, women’s organizations, and other national organizations will discuss the Women’s Reservation Bill.

Additionally, the BRS MLC on Friday launched a hunger strike at Jantar Mantar in the national capital to demand the introduction of the Women’s Reservation Bill in the current budget session. Earlier today, the Supreme Court decided to list K Kavitha’s petition against ED summons in the Delhi excise police case on March 24. The apex court, however, refused to grant her any interim relief.
In connection with the case, Kavitha was questioned by ED on March 11. The ED summoned her again on March 16 in connection with this case.
