In a recent political development, Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for its handling of the Women’s Reservation Bill. He contends that the BJP is using this bill as a strategic move to garner support from female voters. Chowdhury’s remarks have ignited a political debate, with implications for the upcoming elections.
Chowdhury’s Accusation

Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, a prominent figure within the Congress party, did not mince words when he referred to the Women’s Reservation Bill as an “Election Jumla” orchestrated by the BJP. He asserts that the BJP’s intentions behind this bill are not genuine but are driven by political calculations.
Chowdhury’s Statements
Chowdhury, in a statement on social media platform X, expressed his views on the matter. He stated, “The #WomenReservationBill2023 is nothing but a ploy of #BJP to woo the womenfolk of this country, who has prevented them from enacting this bill for the last nearly 10 years!!! It is an ELECTION JUMLA only.” He further added, “Nobody in the country knows when the census and delimitation will come into force.”
Chowdhury’s Analogy
Chowdhury drew a parallel between the uncertainty surrounding the Women’s Reservation Bill and the issues of black money and demonetization. He likened the situation to the controversial demonetization policy and the promise of depositing 15 lakhs in every citizen’s account.
Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury’s accusation that the BJP is using the Women’s Reservation Bill as an election tactic has raised questions about the true intentions behind this legislation. This debate adds a new layer to the ongoing political discourse and could influence voter sentiment in the upcoming elections.
